Pretty lights and carnival music
Painted ponies with bowed heads
Round and round they dance so
Always chasing rainbows.
The lights turned off
The music stopped now
Painted ponies raise their heads
Step off their carousel.
Free to dance now
Skittering in the wind
Moonlight catches bridles
Leads them far away.
Carnivals forgotten
Endless circles lost in time
Dance and prance, kick up their heels
Free to be now.
