Have You Heard?
for Arthur
Have you heard, love?
Soon,
a thousand windows will open.
The first note sung,
heralding renewal.
More notes follow.
Yes, you are still here,
dive deeper, dearest,
you will find you.
Listen!
A chorus of song
mingles into rarity—
a woven brocade of sound.
Ah—this one moment souls should not miss.
yes, yes, like wildflowers,
this moment will pass.
Wind blows,
petals wither,
we too.
yes, yes, our bodies betray,
our spirits do not, love.
Let us say yes!
To the moment,
to life,
to love.
Then, bravos, bravas for these gifts—
simple, profound.
The first note soars,
1000 windows open.
In a breathless hush—
eternity.
What more, my friend?
Ah, well,
they say,
deep within is what we seek.
It is also said,
we are only vessels,
housing overwhelming treasure.
And here it is!
The first note,
an exultation—
rebirth on the breath of winds and wings.
Where, you ask?
Anywhere that makes you glad.
