Like snow clings to the trees,
Then falls in the slightest breeze--
One moment in the sun,
Bright shining and then it’s gone--
For that moment in the sun,
For a moment in the sun,
We were born.
Just frozen bits of sky
That gather on beds of pine—
From formlessness lended shape,
Then light and warmth evaporate—
For a moment in the sun,
For that moment in the sun,
We were more.
***
Unnumbered and multiform
Issue of same birthing storm
Arms outreach and interwov’n,
Join bodies dissolve into snow
For a moment in the sun,
For that moment in the sun,
We were one. We were one.
