when passed the hour
a light to shine
with memories of home –
as breath
the first returned
into the fold

a cry of sweet surrender
an amen barely heard
reunion of the sinner
to the saint –
the baby to the cradle
arms forever wait
with words to taste the same
as once were said

wandering again to this
another way became
unknowing of the seasons
passed before –
of day before the daylight
a garden unadorned
wanting but for love
to come again

and worry not the thief
of time –
might steal our lowly plans
light to claim the dark –
another day

with nothing but the notion
of passing here before –
filled as then
with lifetimes
in our soul
