Listen

Here for a while
Lift with fond smiles


Here by the way
Heed love that plays


Here watch joy pile
Truth in sure style


Here transcend gain
Even in pain


Here with wise glow
Act funds swift show


Here with plain truth
Watch word fling proof


Here time and space
Echo brief trace


Here high breeds sigh
In cryptic cry


Here as we chance
Make love a dance


Here despite pain
Freely forge strains


Here pun greets wit
Death deeds last hit


Here in a flash
Ash from old flesh


Here sense the end
Greet round the bend
