red in the air

empty times shine and we

show the sky our faces

Indigo drapes over the trees as we

sit and show a few good moments to the breeze

talk about how the water sounds feel

open the jacket and observe the birds

pick up a rock and throw it for no reason

each end of the day winds down like this

run down the hill and splash the water

ask for one more can to drink

then watch that sun go on down

off in the distant hills the moon rises slow

right now could last forever And we would not mind
