If the sky above you
should turn dark and full of clouds
Paint your palette blue and grey
look out on a summer’s day
We all need somebody
to lean on
If you ever find yourself lost in the dark
and you can’t see
Close your eyes and think of me
soon I will be there
I’ll sail the world
to find you
Shadows on the hills
sketch the trees and the
daffodils
The rocks may melt
and the seas may burn
if I should not return

We stood at the entrance of a new age.
Past a garden of all we had ever known,
We found the gate.
Past what we were meant to know and created to be.
She wrote until her fingers carved groves in the silence and spoiled the blankness before. Then, she turned to each surface left unwrote and sang. The birch trees wept as she tore back the bark to reveal stories beneath.
I await you in the open grass–
The rolling plains roam my mind
Dark-swept winds ride the horizon–
Damp with the promises you left unanswered
