there’s a whisper

 there’s a whisper


a murmuration of crows

slowly wheeling in the dusk

clackward treeward 

a joy to behold


in the lantern a candle flickers

a shiver crosses the moon

the tide has slipped beyond the woods

a fox stretches for its night


away the day

away the children adventures bed

this is the way it must have been 

at the end of the firstest day


sipping a night-cup by the fire

dreaming down lids a sigh

my oh my

oh my oh my

my oh my oh my
