I
It’s funny how beautiful the world looks this morning
In the glow of a love as ancient and inevitable as the rising sun
The day after a show, or something equally profound,
Hums and crackles with a renewed belief in the ability
Of ideas and passions to share their strength
Across times that share no dates
Between people who have not met
And paths that do not cross
II
We carried your love across the oceans of night
Through the land of dreams
Just to plant your flag in the soft soil of this morning
III
Long may she wave
