From Yesterday

Try on for trying.

Cry on for crying.

Die on for dying.

Fear not to fear.

 

Hunger’s deep burning.

Awake but still yearning.

Stones left o’re turning.

Hold to what’s dear.

 

Like the dew falling.

Faint whisper calling.

From the ground crawling.

Be still to hear.

 

Songs sung of ages,

break forth from cages.

Pages on pages.

All becomes clear.

 

Stand tall for standing.

All things demanding.

Grasp understanding.

Dawn’s light is near.

 

Branches once traded,

come home elated.

What was awaited…

soon will appear.
