|
A stick a stone |
|
it's the end of the road, |
|
|
|
it's the rest of the stump |
|
it's a little alone |
|
|
|
it's a sliver of glass, |
|
it is life, it's the sun, |
|
|
|
it is night ,it is death, |
|
it's a trap, it's a gun. |
|
|
|
the oak when it blooms, |
|
a fox in the brush, |
|
|
|
the knot in the wood, |
|
the song of the thrush. |
|
|
|
the wood of the wind, |
|
a cliff, a fall, |
|
|
|
a scratch, a lump, |
|
it is nothing at all. |
|
|
|
it's the wind blowing free. |
|
it's the end of a slope. |
|
|
|
it's a beam, it's a void, |
|
it's a hunch, it's a hope. |
|
|
|
and the riverbank talks. |
|
of the water of march |
|
|
|
it's the end of the strain, |
|
it's the joy in your heart. |
|
|
|
the foot, the ground, |
|
the flesh, the bone, |
|
|
|
the beat of the road, |
|
a slingshot stone. |
|
|
|
a fish, a flash, |
|
a silvery glow, |
|
|
|
a fight, a bet, |
|
the range of the bow. |
|
|
|
the bed of the well, |
|
the end of the line, |
|
|
|
the dismay in the face, |
|
it's a loss, it's a find. |
|
|
|
a spear, a spike, |
|
a point, a nail, |
|
|
|
a drip, a drop, |
|
the end of the tale. |
|
|
|
a truckload of bricks, |
|
in the soft morning light, |
|
|
|
the shot of a gun, |
|
in the dead of the night. |
|
|
|
a mile, a must, |
|
a thrust, a bump. |
|
|
|
it's a girl, it's a rhyme. |
|
it's the cold, it's the mumps. |
|
|
|
the plan of the house, |
|
the body in bed, |
|
|
|
the car that got stuck, |
|
it's the mud, it's the mud. |
|
|
|
a float, a drift, |
|
a flight, a wing, |
|
|
|
ahawk, a quail, |
|
the promise of spring. |
|
|
|
and the riverbanks talks. |
|
of the waters of march. |
|
|
|
it's the promise of life, |
|
it's the joy in your heart, |
|
|
|
a snake, a stick, |
|
it is john, it is joe, |
|
|
|
it's a thorn in your hand, |
|
and a cut on your toe. |
|
|
|
a point, a grain, |
|
a bee, a bite, |
|
|
|
a blink, a buzzard, |
|
the sudden stroke of night. |
|
|
|
a pin, a needle, |
|
a sting, a pain, |
|
|
|
a snail, a riddle, |
|
a weep, a stain. |
|
|
|
a pass in the mountains. |
|
a horse, a mule, |
|
|
|
in the distance the shelves. |
|
rode three shadows of blue. |
|
|
|
and the riverbank talks |
|
of the promise of life |
|
in your heart, in your heart |
|
|
|
a stick, a stone, |
|
the end of the load, |
|
|
|
the rest of the stump, |
|
a lonesome road. |
|
|
|
a sliver of glass, |
|
a life, the sun, |
|
|
|
a night, a death, |
|
the end of the run |
|
|
|
and the riverbank talks |
|
of the waters of march |
|
|
|
it's the end of all strain |
|
it's the joy in your heart |
