How can you describe
The spirit of an open night
The shadow on the wings of flight
To feel your mind
The taste of summer on your tongue
A glittering expanse of icy tears
Ten thousand souls in laughing song
To smiling relate
A shattered window held by will
An only tree that's growing still
To try-
Yet you can't describe.
The deepest whole
An endless soul
Of night and light and windy skies
Of death and life and hands-held-high
We simply know
With tears of gladness filling
Cupped hands
And hollow hearts
