You were born to sing the morning in
dry earth on your knees
you were taught to hold the orb of molten golden honey
bare hands blistered for the bees
and it hurt
But you sang the morning in
you did it every day
and I could not believe my ears and eyes
as every note became
another golden ray
another endless stretch of life
that you alone had made
You were born to sing the morning in
and you voice was heard by all
and you did it with such grace that I forgot:
without you, night would fall
but you sang
and the meek voices in your heart shouted loud
and you sang the morning in
