Empty dippers above

Empty dippers above

Where do all our dreams go

Falling on deaf ears and

Lost in moon river flow

No universal bees

Pollinating planets

That nudge in their passing

Without touching magnets

O life companion loss

O life companion loss

We never parted ways

I played by ear your song

Before the Monet hays

New to love and beauty 

My heart made room for yours

Unknowingly last day

I played your song from pores

Take me there and leave me

Take me there and leave me

Where sun invites silence

And time is transparent

All one moment science

Healing from the hardness

Still soft with compassion

Then sounds of clocks chiming

Timeline an assassin 

Steady or wavering

Steady or wavering 

Only resting on falls

Eye level with blurred feet

Deadlines like bugle calls

Beneath forward looking

Younger generations 

Arrowheads are buried

Past civilizations 

Hold me stone statue and

Hold me stone statue and

Cradle me in cold arms

Stare at me with dead eyes

False protection from harms

Caress me with chipped hands

Let me pray on deaf ears

I will kiss your hard lips

And wipe your chiseled tears

Too many fingerprints

Too many fingerprints

Shy but transparent Art

The performing dancer

Last apple in the cart

Ships along the shoreline

The Titanic steals hearts 

Mystery has magnets

Life journey without charts

The twilight brush fading

The twilight brush fading

Falling from stone facades

Taking the stark shadows

In the changing of gods

Footsteps are returning

Clouds pulled by western jets

Like zippered sleeping bags

Camping as the sun sets
