Bird of Innocence

The day's burden is speechless. Stars travel moonward through a silent sky.
Days burst in loneliness. Fly, fly bird of innocence, fly away with me to far-away worlds,
where clearest water fills the creeks after a sudden rain. Loneliness of the night,
world-whisper, daydreams, fragile as glacier-ice. Fly, bird, fly to far-away worlds
and take my dreams with you. Your beat of wings will ease the stroke of time.
