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.
