l know with the setting
Of the sun also sets
The essence of the sky.
I know birds in twilight
Gliding in the dusky blur
Are the tears of the sky.
I know the -
moving shadows Below
dense dark trees
Are tremblings of the sky.
I know the stormy sound
Blowing thru' the caves
Is their sad wailful cry.
I know the -
twinkling of stars
In this gloomy midnight
Is the wealth of the sky.
It's an --
unflinching promise
To the light of Tomorrow
By Today's darkling sky.
