Unrelenting Spirit
dances across the plane, of windswept torment
and ill begotten fame.
Unrelenting Spirit
lost to days of yore, contemplates a future
with nothing to live for…
While the moon drifts in the skies…
Stay awake, don’t close your eyes.
Mockingbird says to the Jay,
Come little spirit, come and play.
Canary sings to the Warbler,
Time for us to look away…
Stay awake, don’t nod and dream…
stay awake, don’t nod and dream.
Unrelenting Spirit
stumbles in the dark, forever searching
for the lark.
Unrelenting Spirit
gives in to the pull, of waves that rush
and a breeze so still.
Hush says the Robin to the Wren,
life circles back, to begin again…
The Heron knows where, the Crow
knows when.
