Hear Us Fall
We are seeds, we are seeds, Weeping willow, hollow reeds Let us rise, let us be Let the wind set us free Hear us call, hear us call, Let the wind take us all We are tinder, we are spark We are cinders in the dark. We are fuel fed to flame. Let the fire spread our name Hear us call, hear us call Let the fire take us all We are currents, we are streams A waterfall within a dream. We are waves, an ocean’s roar, flowing water, endless shore. Hear us call, hear us call Let the water take us all We are voices floating free. We are ash and memory. We are moments locked in time. We are poems speaking rhymes. Hear us fall, hear us fall Let the Earth take us all
Weeping willow
A sweet nickname from my aunties to me when I was child
Loved that! Especially these lines got me... We are voices floating free.
We are ash and memory.
We are moments locked in time.
We are poems speaking rhymes.
What else is there to express but our lines (as poets) in the face of the immensity of the universe...
