moon backlights all monochrome
from the past the future looms
future
too many tomorrows
too many tomorrows
never arrive
too many tomorrows
for the rest of our lives
too many tomorrows
that should be today
too many tomorrows
when I do not dare say
let the rains fall
the rains grow our children
green and tall
as the green grain in springtime
our children grow
all fated to greatness
let the rains fall
let the rains grow our children
the sun is paler
the sun is paler than the milky sky
the winter east wind cuts faces deep
empty grey days stretch out ahead of us
empty days stretch out grey ahead of us
today the sun is shining
today the sun is shining
and today that is important
today the birds are singing
and today that is important
today there are children laughing
and today that is important
we never know when the world may fall
or our world may fall apart
but if there is sun and song and children laughing
I know there will always be hope
For Giò, 1959-2020
however we try
however we try
the wolf in our heart
chooses the path

sprinkle my ashes
sprinkle my ashes
where weeds in icy streamings flow
there is so much more to feel
if there is a path
if there is a path
you are not the first
slip sideways between the trees
dare the unknown to do its worst
horse gallops wayward
horse gallops wayward
in the far distance an arch
new thoughts clench my fist
