Thy Say
Let give thanks to a beloved wisdom
The sea in the seeds in our gardens
~~~~~~~~~
Let embrace words from the brains.
~~~~~~~~~
The law that officiates his piece is falling
Day by day
Like a bridge failing its lane.
~~~~~~~~~
Eyes said there would be wind
In weeds not of sands
And out of the cold and frosting storm.
~~~~~~~~~
Would there be rain in a barren sky?
~~~~~~~~~
Mouths said and boast hostly
About their cargoes,
Stadias... and flights.
Won't the mountain stop them
From bowing their shrouded shoulder?
~~~~~~~~~
Let there be Light in here.
