I was so busy today
\nI had barely time to breathe.
\nTo find my whereabouts.
\nA day traveled with irredeemable
\njunctures of epiphany,
\nI heard children sing Christmas
\ncarols in the morning.
\nA pageant for the Christ child.
\nHad breakfast with my family,
\nand watched a December rain
\nfall to the earth.<\/p>\n
I thought of gifts
\nI wanted to give.
\nBottles of light from the dawn.
\nThe gray sleep of the sky.
\nThe sound of the song
\nI composed and could not cage.
\nSo funny, hiding in the keys
\nof the piano, never to be heard again,
\nas I played them.<\/p>\n
Such a busy day
\nthat I\u2019m getting lost in the shadows
\nfinding my way to bed.
\nThis day gave me happiness,
\nenough to sing about,
\nand tears,
\nfalling from my eyes in secret.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
