As Night Is Falling ...



I look to the horizon
As night is falling
And folds the day away
So close in my thoughts
I look for you
Yet so far away
It seems so long
Since your words to me
No flowers nor more to say
Somewhere beyond
The stars and moonlight
My wishes float away
Hoping you might think of me
As you welcome another day…

UNDER AUSTRALIAN SKIES

Under Australian skies
The leaves of the bush rustled
I heard the feet of a girl
Crackle underfoot the past

Under Australian skies
The leaves of the bush rustled
I heard the feet of a boy
Tread backwards around a mast

He shows no flagging spirit
As he walks with purpose
Mile after mile in a line
Of meandering zigzags

Hoping to remember the route
He had passed so many years ago
When birds would rest in his hand
On their long journey south

Under Australian skies
You could say they knew each other
When one hand touched the bark
Where another had touched before

Her spirit returned as quickly
As it left his, her life returned
Touching, touching her soul
The air in her lungs, her all.

C.B.
