Where Are Your Eyes?


Think of this: Night always ends.
Air that settles like fear,
heavy and wet, 
into empty places
rises again in daylight.

Morning glories uncover faces
hid from the dark, and
songs the birds 
banished at sunset
return home to clearings at dawn.

Listen! Even before morning,
wizards sing in ashen trees 
waking peach blossoms and 
green-gold hedgerows.
Day returns.

Where are your eyes?
