Still This Hour
Sun above at the zenith celebrates
this the hour of stillness
see the feathers in the vase on the window sill
with the creamy yellow beaver skull and porcelain frog
still in the sunlit air now
the hummingbirds dart
the art of living is feeling this
reaching to touch
so how the young dance for love
they so hope to know completion
while the old hold on to the moment
dear
would the music reach you in the hour of stillness
the music of life composed of love
so also loss
as the time slipped away to be put to rest in the forgotten
than quietly resurrected for a dream
I will embrace the wordless air
sit in forgiven surrender to this hour
dreaming of your love
