There Were Fireworks in the Sky

I am but the Gull
Soaring high upon this sea
Of whispers of water
Turned gossamer by cold
The layers of life fluid
To return and replenish
That the earth has given

The lights of humanity
Flow above me followed
By entrails of cloud
The lights of humanity
Flow below me followed
By entrails luminescent

My horizon behind darkens to night before
To my side the clouds conspire
To provide glorious pinnacles
Of grey and white
Filled with glorious lights
Orange and yellow and white
Sheets and streaks across my journey

I am mist of you
Your image explodes into this mind
Montage of memory
Collage of relations time
Friendships and love

You are out there
Flying in this sky
A friend connected to the moon
And these stars
And this lightening
And these clouds

You flow with this water
On this earth and in this sky
Boundless love your offer
Reward to restless soul
I hold you to my heart
And my wing soars
