The Dust That Floats In the Daylight
No one knows what
The dust that floats in the daylight is
Small specks of dirt I'm told
Or bits of flowers, or skin, or mold.
I, of differing opinion, am
Concerned myself with its essence
The dust that floats in the daylight
Are naught but lit old souls
A special pair of eyes and
The dust that floats in the daylight
Can see against the shine
Memories, pain, laughter and wine.
Hitherto unknown
True tales dance and silent din
The dust that floats in the daylight
Is the great work of our kind.
