I Dreamt Music
Distant buildings
Slowly appearing
Through a winter storm
One point of light
A flame that melts the heart
A candle in the dark
Dawn breaks
Night falls
The stars return
Return
Kneeling in the blue light
Listening for a whisper
Kneeling in the blue light
Rain on the rooftops
Rain rippled water
Thunder rolls once more
Wind in the treetops
Dust in the sunlight
That spills across a wooden floor
The long summer evenings
The longer nights that follow
Through changing seasons
Time escapes
A green world of birdsong
A grey sky of snowflakes
Blown every which way
Dawn breaks
Night falls
The stars return
Return
The gold will turn
To icicles
It’s a losing game
You can’t conquer change
Kneeling in the blue light
Listening for a whisper
Kneeling in the blue light
