Dust sparkles in the sun
Small gleams on the bank
Gemstones silent in the moonlight
Angels on the ramparts
This piece of eternal sky
This place beyond today
For arms ached
Hands blistered
Leaf stains as thickened wine
Distant memories.
Written in a century of dreams
Hopes rise as a watchman
Beyond the guilty stains
Marble fire possessing veins
And wonders at the eloquence of love
