Bird Shadows
Across the warm tumbling shore seabirds glide
And splay their moving shadows onto sand
To fill my eyes under the sky they hide
As I lay beneath its taunt endless band
To be at peace and rest my spirit's cause
I find it stirring when no breath is found
A voice within, a quiet space to pause
With chalice filled to quench its thirst, Im bound
And lay in rhythm still, with the sound of waves
Seeking burdens light, from the days life gives
Releasing tensions that a body saves
Unearth good reason for this life that lives
And reach a depth where dark and light converge
To touch bird shadows, with my eyes they merge
