Beneath the opening skies
Beneath the opening of the sky
Lightness of being of unending light
Lost in the history of minds long gone
In the stillness of dawning night
Trembling leaves over time
Fleeting as tattered lights
Through the confines of what we knew
Listening to musical notes of water
Begin to hear the opening within
Growing life created through the
Streams beyond the future present
Transcends what we know
to be lost then be found
In the silence of present selves
