Let Us
Let us walk in the shadows of the day,
Slow in pace in the cool along the way,
Let us pause as we go taking time light
Let us stroll all the day till we reach the night.
Let us see the sunset fall behind the hills
Slow the night will huddle us with chills
As the spring flower close till the morrow
Let us walk in the night of shadow.
Let us hold each other in walking
And quiet will speak when not talking,
Let us walk with no place we need go,
Let us pause gathering things grown slow.
Slow the day will return to the sky
Let us go without the asking why,
Slow in pace in the warm along the way
Let us walk together through the day.
Gloom
