A grey breeze causes leaf children to dance
In the mediocre spring pudding eve
The march of time paused on a chance circumstance
As I feel my senses take leave
Through the open window paratrooper dandelion
A daydream casually floats
Looks down on my coffee on its way to my book
Where I’ll surround it with a ring of singing notes
A moistness in my eye persuading me to laugh or cry
I want to jump and shout just like a jagged tide
For how long God only knows my wires stood exposed
I was blind but his grace restored my sight
Now I’m dancing once again with strange angels in the wind
Lightning from my pen a storm front heart
I praise you for this gift Holy Spirit give me lift
Jesus from my presence don’t depart
Jesus from my presence don’t depart
Jesus from my presence don’t depart
