[@carolannbarrows1]

Exquisite! Where can I find the lyrics?

[@stephaniefischer3281]

Alone while yearning For something beyond The turn of the sun The arc of your flight Casts a shadow of light Over days that have not yet begun Fearful of waking still Of broken wings and will But in that speaking silence Instilled, imperfect quiet My eyes undo the morning sky Untangle dawn in palms held high Infinite in the bird in the air And the ground at my feet The earth, the wind, the sea, And me We are an empire of blue United by our breath and sight My spirit soars in endless day My heart is sweetly still in perfect night

[@eileensharp5297]

Thank you! I too wanted to see them!

[@marymeese1014]
