Thank You for the lights
That glimmer in every eye;
Thank You for the sunshine I
Am forever surrounded by;
Thank You for the splendid joy
You write cascading in my life;
Thank You always, Abba Father,
For the love You weave in my design.

I don’t know what I speak, but
The words bring me release
How can you feel nothing, yet
The comfort wrap you up so sweet?
When blank cards face the dealer does it matter if you cheat?
I don’t feel anything to say, so please
why are you still here to read?
There is such a strong memory in me
concrete and water
the buzzing of the trees, the steaming of the leaves
i can feel the rough-stone against my hands, the wet bricks lapped by endless sands
the tumbling shadows through the branches, currents caught by the wilder-man
i hear the scraping of the twigs, the breaking rustle of their twins
no one can remove this energy
from me.
