Carry Me Home

rays melt
into the blue light
of another heaven
 
        *
 
wind washed
water melts anew
on the blue horizon
 
        *
 
birds
of another day
have joined
for morning prayers
 
        *
 
looking east
the pages turn
to the wind
where all the blind
begin to see
 
        *
 
jigsaw night
among the red and blue—
once more I’m
back together again
 
        *
 
sometimes dead as sin—
reborn for another day
 
        *
 
now is the time
as the water passes
and the creaking sound
of the wheel
will carry me home
