The Winter is over

The Winter is over

No longer a snow squall

No cold in the air or

Fields covered in snowfall

With a caress, a touch

Spring has ended it all

The tulips tipping as

Their bulbs answer the call

Together in a dream

Together in a dream
We float in outerspace
Our arms interlocking
A state of perfect grace

In light without shadows
A Marc Chagall wedding
Goat playing violin
And rings of sun spreading

All these daily prayers

All these daily prayers

That never leave our space

Half the world in darkness

Spinning in outerspace

No deity, no God

No eye up in the sky

All this devotion to

A story that’s a lie

Too difficult to dream

Too difficult to dream
Hopes too high and unclear
Hard to discern them when
Reality is clear

Better to make my way
Without dreams going bust
That break or fall apart
Or simply turn to rust

The last days of winter

The last days of winter
Snow falls and disappears
The days growing longer
Soon tulips will appear

How soon we will forget
The bitterness, the cold
The long nights of darkness
The winter will grow old

To find the elusive

To find the elusive
Discover Life alive
The transitory in
Moments that don't survive

To join in the raw joy
Where the music is new
As nature's dance partner
Unchoreographed shoe

All this endless wonder

All this endless wonder
Science or some great mind
Will locate the answers
That I can't seem to find

Until then, I'm drifting
A snowflake in a snow
Questions left unanswered
While floating with the flow
