Sea Change

What a day, I'm blown away Watch the sun disintegrate As I lay and contemplate Clouds of gray accumulate Dreamt a dream, back in the day Keep it safely locked away Girl, it shines and never fades Lives on love and prayers I pray Too many silent nights Too many crowded days Waiting for something The Weatherman pontificates A million starling murmuration A distant storm, a giant wakes Across the bay a strange sea change Too many silent nights Too many crowded days Waiting for something I have braved the rain for hours Catching lightning in a jar I can't see in front of me When I look beyond the stars Like a man born blind Seeing colors for the first time Then all at once The moon across the sun ©2017.
