There'll be another day
When conversation will be
Warm and present
The easy flow of thoughts
As perhaps we walk
Or sit close
That casual chit and chat
In the shades of trees
Or some café
As we shelter from the rain
And I can lean into
The space between
And enjoy your laughter
In the atmosphere
Of happy contentment
The humdrum of normality
Beyond the screens
Of separation
Watch the folks pass by
In the busy pace of doing
The interchange that flows
The smiles without masks
And every small moment
Will be treasured
When I meet you
In that other day
The songs and art in this book are about our collective emergence after the pandemic and trauma of the last few years - comprised of 5 collections: World as Refuge, Where We Live, In Our Hands, Rhythms of Change and What We See & Sow.
Each person is but a grain of sand resting beside the sea. This thought sets the tone for Jill Eisnaugle’s latest poetry collection, Beside Still Waters.
