The birth of a word
The world of a bird
slides and swirls
under the wings of time
Time flies
Is it time to sing?
The world of the wise
whims and chimes
when the unspeakable hatches
Time lies
Is it time to reason?
The world of a bird
slides and swirls
under the wings of time
Time flies
Is it time to sing?
The world of the wise
whims and chimes
when the unspeakable hatches
Time lies
Is it time to reason?

Drew the bird
that crashed into my window
drew it flying
drew it landing
drew it dying
on the porch of life
Don’t you worry
lonely little cloud
high in the blue
eye of the sky
I know I know
You can’t touch but the wind
and the wind ignores you
it seems
But the sunlight goes through you
like these words
embrace the world
none the less
Let it all be
lonely little cloud
passing the heavenly
iris of life
I know I know
You can’t even cry
nor let your pain show
sadly
But hear the love
of the dove below
singing for you
the truth we know
Your pain, like us
will not last
