Ornaments of olive eyes Wading sleepy through starry skies A silver window of heavens light Sing me to sleep this winter night Azalea, lay your flowers in the snow As I lay, the wind shivers aching bones Waiting calm for lower tides I etched a poem in the stone Rusty sheets, broken boards Broken folds we call our homes Azalea, the prettiest face As I wait, for the dead to come back home
