The glow of lights
I see at night
Try to perceive
In light of day
As aural gleam
A sign of this
Candescent life
I see at night
Try to perceive
In light of day

The Next Refrain
There’s a little black cloud
In the sky tonight
Between the setting sun
And the bright moonlight
There’s an indigo rush
As blood and ochre fight
And the sea is becalmed
Beneath the mountains might
In the sky tonight
Between the setting sun
And the bright moonlight
There’s an indigo rush
As blood and ochre fight
And the sea is becalmed
Beneath the mountains might
I have stood here before
In this sundown pain
And the stars still to come
After the planets reign
With the world writ so large
I feel my being wane
Falling deep into grace
I sing the next refrain
Night Passage
Sweeping beam
Lights the way
Then guided home
By bell and whistle
Safe harbour waits
Through narrow channel
Between the rocks
Let us not stray
Lights the way
Then guided home
By bell and whistle
Safe harbour waits
Through narrow channel
Between the rocks
Let us not stray
Eastern Glow
While others gaze
Upon low lying sun
I turn my eye
Unto opposing sky
And glory in
The subtler shades
Which vibrance
Though far less pronounced
Such bare honest glow
With its gracious tones
In soft pastel
Restrained
Does not shout out
But whispers clear
“I am a sight
Held no less dear”
Upon low lying sun
I turn my eye
Unto opposing sky
And glory in
The subtler shades
Which vibrance
Though far less pronounced
Such bare honest glow
With its gracious tones
In soft pastel
Restrained
Does not shout out
But whispers clear
“I am a sight
Held no less dear”
Rangeland Sunset
Making time
Across a wide flat land
Sky burnished amber
Prairie icons
Punctuate the horizon
In a place of
Simplest existence
Simple and hard
And I drive on
Across a wide flat land
Sky burnished amber
Prairie icons
Punctuate the horizon
In a place of
Simplest existence
Simple and hard
And I drive on
Magic Sunlight
Sometimes
I remember
It’s just a star
I remember
It’s just a star
Sometimes
I realize
The magic of its light
Most days
It rises, it sets
Another day gone by
But today
It’s magic
And so am I
Sunday
Through the trees
The rock
And the sea
The rock
And the sea
A rugged shoreline
In splendid
Repose
While I
Breathe silently
In time
With the rush of ocean
Upon the land
Dappled sun
Offers
Tonic warmth
Aliens
I look to the sky
Wondering
If the aliens will ever come
Wondering
If the aliens will ever come
I look to the sea
Realizing
They’re already here
Clustered
I marvel at life
All clustered together
Enclaves of variety
All clustered together
Enclaves of variety
And I wonder at you and I
With all that space
We put between us
And still
We just can’t
Get along
