and music plays
it's decades long rhythm
just a day
full sails whisper as they
ride
in time to the cloud's shadow play
movement
seated within a deep sigh
just a man
watching all the movies play
a life with too much to say
and a silence
held close
where a man may cry unseen
more than memories
lie naked in both
his upturned hands
open to the sky
a man can only try
and remember
under these summertime skies
