Abandoned on this wind-swept fen.
All the words we shared, breathe out
But no one’s . . .

As Pilgrims journeyed, this New World to seek
They sought the message in each pass and creek
Through frozen winters, starving socialist ferment

In between the summer scenes, a gentle light went out
Gone with a whimper, not a scream, and from a painful bout

A crackened sky gave flight today
When God sent down an earthly ray
Delivering a soul to him
As mortal prospects grew so dim.
He’d made it through a stroke and fall
A brand-new hip, and Caedmon’s . . .

A great light grid for fondest friends
An energy for all to share

Their silencing cadence
Cascading through trees?
The neon-green night glow
Blinking like Morse Code

Like tidal pools upon the ocean.
