The Accidental Linguist

Cielito Lindo Haiku



From brown mountains come
Dark eyes ready to rob me
Pretty little sky

That mole by your mouth
Don’t give it away, lovely
Pretty little sky

Just one step between
Our two houses. Hug me quick,
Pretty little sky

Arrow in the air
Cupid playing wounded me
Pretty little sky.

Your mouth is sugar
I will eat it, lick by lick
Pretty little sky.

Ay, ay, ay ay
Sing and do not cry,
For singing makes hearts happy,
Pretty little sky.
