Give the Day a Chance....

Come meet me near the river
Beneath the morning moon
Let’s lick the dew of dawn from love,
Let’s sip the breeze with spoon

Peel off the skin of winter
And hang it out to dry
Upon the sleeve of summer
Where snowflakes come to die

Let’s cast off sock and sneaker

Bare naked toes to brook
Burrow them like earthworms
That must evade the hook

Let's take the ribbons from our hair
So that the wind may dance
Let our souls fall free to face
Give the day a chance

Let fingers intertwine with clouds
Let’s grasp the hand of blue
Gather up our dreams of old
And replace them all with new

Come meet me near the river
We’ll stay 'till evening rain
Come with me tomorrow
And we shall do it all again!
