ACROSS A HIDDEN SKY

 

 

ACROSS A HIDDEN SKY

Striving to get our points across

We barter, word for word

Seldom ever heard or hearing

What if we stopped all our debates

What if we should quiet, wait

For one bright meteor

Across a hidden sky.

Rest to our souls this silence take

Lest in the fusillades launched

We should be wounded,by mistake,

And unrepairable.
