NIGHT COLD AND SILENT
Once October comes here
in the Northern Hemisphere,
hint, hint, smart, smart, each
night just sneak out after 11 and,
just listen to the sounds of night,
just look up into the night sky,
just feel the cold and silent night
surround you - just stand there
or slowly walk down to the end
of an empty street and you’ll see
a lot more than you’ll see in
the bright busy of the day.
Then without words - pause - then
or slowly walk down to the end
of an empty street and you’ll see
a lot more than you’ll see in
the bright busy of the day.
Then without words - pause - then
praise and thank God for one
more day of life and love and
presence - knowing there is more.
