Lyrics to Poem For Erika (Erika With The Windy Yellow Hair) :
(Mary Travers)
[Spoken:]
Erika with the windy yellow hair
Dancing through the day or moping by the stair
My joy to know my Erika with the windy yellow hair
Yesterday I met her running home from school
Her face was tear stained, she didn't know I knew
But I do, I do
But today she had a song to sing and a poem she knew
And with a kiss and a hug she just dashed away, she had things to do
I do too, I do too
Lithesome child, I turn with care
When viewing you on step or stair
All my hope and love for you,
My Erika with the windy yellow hair

Fabulous painting, great expressionist verve, great story behind the picture. Like millions of kids growing up in the late sixties, I heard Peter Paul and May on the radio (in faraway Delhi, India, would you believe!) fv
