It's Azure And The Clouds Are Streaming

it's azure and the clouds are streaming

time-lapsed toward the moon and

have you fallen through the gem-stoned cracks

with rings on your fingers from

the gum machines?

or are you still here when rose appears

too soon in the skies and unexpectedly

or when accelerating angels catch

the drift of your Czerny,

are you still practicing?

it's echo location in the great gold halls

and out of a burgundy heart 

this music's flowing somewhere for

someone

and it's your April

wear white violet for awhile

you'll still be near when snow's sent scudding

toward the constellations

God hid in the Easter grass of heaven:

bedazzled with raspberry forethought 

for the astronomers and for you
