Bend of Sky Could I but go to bend of sky see the things that sunrise brings around the corner I would run there bare shouldered dream with wings Could a blooming backwards rose grow from petals on the lawn a breeze would take them to the face and stick them there with dew of dawn A child would know a wisdom song an old man whimsy chase around and ground would hold a crayon’s melt as night moon glows a suntan brown Love would surely stay with hands that promised ever after and trees would lay their branches down for climbing faster laughter Could I but go to bend of sky see the things that sunrise brings around the corner I would run there bare shouldered dream with wings ----- 11-01 with photo by Martie from Maui, 10-02 I'll be away for over a week to be with family that needs some help...and I'll have no computer access...see ya when I get back..I'll miss you all! |
