Like Water in the Desert
 
Like water in the desert                                                              Or your hand upon the sun
Like a bird who’s lost it’s feathers
A hammer on your thumb. 
I’ve given you my tattered tunes
And lifted up your veil
I’ve sat upon your amber throne
And lived to tell the tale.
This I know,
All creatures meet at the watering hole.
This I see, Me in you and you in me.
It rained again last Thursday
I came close to letting go,
The desert drank it all 
When the cistern overflowed.
The sunlight held no promise
But I let fly anyway,
The wind blew close upon us
At the edge of the day.
Glad for the oasis.
Happy to stay a while.
Can you find where we misplaced us,
Or where you left your smile?
