Flight Song (Hum When You Don't Know The Words)

A Poem by Pete
"

It's the beauty within us that makes it possible for us to recognize the beauty around us. The question is not what you look at but what you see. - Thoreau

"
Autumn dawn | Dawn images, Beautiful japanese words, Sunset

"take my hand night", said day
"i'll show you the way"
"first, lay down your heavy load"
so they went skipping down the road
together with the birds
all of them humming
because none of them knew the words
