Before the beginning of all beginnings,
Was God.
And He was all.
But this was not enough,

under canopy of night

Where birds tell tales in the silence of flight,

And the wind, a subtle bard, whispers concealed longing.

Spain in Rain Falls

About the rain in Spain
And being an English man
And well versed in rainfall
I should know a thing or two
About rain

Occasionally with a side to side wiggle
But it...

A lonely beam of yellow-white light,
carving a curve in the ink of the night,
upon the snow-burdened branches of pine,
standing still guard to the lord of the line.
