Hal -

Your voice reaches me
Like the flash of silver wing-tips
In the Summer's morning song
It rises and dances
Like moon strands
On a frosty winter's night

Your music is fresher
Than the water that wells
Out of the mossy ground
And pushes
Between the rocks
Struggling to get through
to me

A smile
Brown eyes with soul
Gazing upon your face
My heart leaps
At the warmth it gives me
Like the sun and the moon
It shines

Then quietly, low, and humming
Comes your song........

And leaves me trembling.



Happy 50th Birthday Hal! -  Peace and Love
Elsie
