Together

At first light birds find their voice again

After the long silence forced by night

For me tottering out of forgetful dreams

Into the new day the chorus from the trees

Seems a gracious greeting from kindred

To one who can fly about without wings

Bring down white clouds to soften nests

Make the moon glow brighter with praise

Let the rainbows linger long after sunset 

At home both on earth and in the sky 

Revelling in the respair of the present 

Keeping dreams warm till they are hatched

Teaching fledglings that they have to fly

But can't fly forever for they have to roost;

The sun begins to cast its shadows

The colours return to the colourless

The streets are back to their cacophony ----

For a while at least the other was together.
