permanence
There is a permanence In every move you make,
The steps you take when walking the dog
Create the rhythm for a heart that beats
Halfway around the world.
You are the butterfly whose wings provide
The current of air that someone is breathing.
Someone who has known you and loved you
All their life. There is a permanence
That surrounds you In the gliding of your days;
That sunshine is the smile you give them
with your presence; raindrops are the tears
They have cried for you.
The earth you walk so casually on Is their soul.
You are the permanence that
Anyone who knows you, would call Love.
