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…

  6. 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.
