Children will sing Leaves will dance Clouds will amass And love will grow Some may miss the sunset But with a quiet dignity The stars Shine bright tonight
Water gathering
most days I wait
through blue and sun
till dusk
or even later
and the rose has faded
to lavender, to gray
some days, the sleet
has started
and the leaves underfoot
are slick with ice
somehow I'm never sorry
and never learn
one night I waited
till the stars were out
dropped the bucket into
sound, only felt the weight
of it filling
and the night full of stars
and the river full of stars
and the bucket full of stars
come morning, the coffee
is also full of stars

Beyond The Day
Children will sing
Leaves will dance
Clouds will amass
And love will grow
Some may miss the sunset
But with a quiet dignity
The stars
Shine bright tonight
