forever barred shut

wellspring of creation’s song

echolocation

a whale’s mournful song haunting

all the dark spaces

I hear the earth’s song

wind-whispering of the sedge

music of the spheres.

in raptured silence listens

to the blackbird’s song.

the world waits on tenterhooks

the clouds played a song

mallets on a xylophone

rain falling through trees

just before dawn – when

the moon fades, we listen to

the song of the leaves
