Beneath Your Bright Thoughts

If I were the lonely pond on a still day

and you the rock

that fate suddenly tossed my way

Ripple after ripple

 there would always be

I’d never allow you to sink

So please forever have that effect on me?

If I were a puddle on a relentless, rainy day

You’d be a child’s rainboots

Deliberately splashing all of my blues away

But when the sun comes out

I wonder, will you forget about me?

Or will you guide me to a river?

Will you follow me to the sea?

And if I join the ocean and you become the bird

I’ll be in constant motion

Rising with your song… yes, each and every word

just beneath your bright thoughts

While the air kisses your wings

Forever trying to chase your breeze

Making waves to reach

The highest branches of your trees

I suppose no matter what form

of living we choose

we’ll have a bond

that we will never lose
