Songs of Life


Music leaks from the heavens as stars swish through the night.  To hear the stars, to decipher the song, you must first capture the proper numbers in your hands and then cup the numbers against your ears.
By day, the wind-struck trees hum and the walls of the stone-canyons whistle softly.  And there is a song where eagles fragment the clouds as they pass through, where insects flex clear wings against window panes, where white stones fall into the green sea, where a single blade of awnless bromegrass sways against the first full moon of summer.
There is music where the morning sun warms your neck and forearm—that, the song you feel.
That, the place where we begin, my dear.
