when sky was young
we danced on tender grass
when stars grew dim
we made love til sun brushed by
following shadows far into a new day
if you were here
I know just how you’d taste
if I were there
the trees would sing our song
bending to touch a love story
when we but listen
breezes carry our names
when we look again
all we are is spelled out in the ground
growing love in earth’s embrace
