The winters
mark the Earth
It's floor
with frozen glass
You slip into my arms
And you quickly
correct yourself
Your freezing
speech bubbles
Seem to hold
your words aloft
I want the smoky
clouds of laughter
To swim about me
forever more
I will race you
to the waterside
And from the edge of
Ireland shout out loud
So they could hear it
in America
It's all for you....
The shells crack
under our shoes
Like punctuation points
The planets bend
between us
A hundred million
suns and stars
The sea filled in
this silence
Before you said
those words
And now even
in this darkness
I can see how
happy you are
I will race you
to the waterside
And from the edge of
Ireland shout out loud
So they could hear it
in America
It's all for you....
It's all for you....
It's all for you....
It's all for you....
It's all for you....
