Clear Light - A Child's Smile

NIGHTS VELVET
VEIL SLIPPED SOFTLY
IN ON AN HOUR GLASS
AND CRYSTALS DUMB

REFLECTING MOVEMENT
FROM THE TOY CHEST
AND ALL GLOWS BRIGHT
WITH FANTASISING

SO EVER SLOWLY RISING
FROM RESTING PLACES SLIDING
DOWN BESIDE HIM

ARRANGED ON COLOURED
PATCHWORK PLAYGROUND
TINY GLASSES BEGIN TO FLUTTER

COMES DAWN WHEN
YOU DEW LAY DYING
AND FROSTED WINDOW DRYING
INSIDE SIGHING

AWAKEING SOUND SENSE
AND MAN CRYING
AND HAVE YOU SEE THE CHILDS SMILE?
