Plainsong |
I found a curious place born of emptiness |
The silent solitude of the evening sky |
Sycamore seeds scatter life on winter days |
The robin and the wren break bread in thankfulness |
Ever will I rest |
Sadly as I weep |
Close against your breast |
Soundly when I sleep |
I hear an ancient air sung with tenderness |
A gentle ambient sound full of innocence |
Shape-notes of a plainsong hymn through the chapel walls |
Green for Epiphany, gold for Trinity |
Come my little darling with your deep-set eyes |
The dragonfly will rest on your fingertips |
The lightest of touch to celebrate the past |
In porcelain, paint and wood, then cast aside |
