It Calls

The craft sits still, just waiting
It knows you’ll be back
The promises you made while skating
The ice never thaws, it’s an endless track

The comfort of having that spark
And knowing it can never go
Is like eating cherries in the park
Deep red juicy flesh, bursting so

The sun and the grass and the clouds
Set the mind forest full of lush
Ready to bloom avoiding the shrouds
It flows with explosion, not a hush

It calls like the wind calls the sail
It calls like the sky calls the sun
It calls like the rose calls the bee
It calls like the shore calls the tide

Answered and fulfilled it is
The sweet joy of giving in
Watching the words appear in a whizz
Safe landing onto the chin with a grin

Where did you come from?
The stars
How did you get here?
You asked

You belong to it, it belongs to you
As the bird whips by
The feathered breeze follows true
A quick reminder to stay high

It calls like thirst calls the stream
It calls like hunger calls the fruit
It calls like cold calls a fire
It calls like silence calls a sound

It is written and complete
It never will leave
It is here to stay and never compete
It has secrets up its sleeve

The way to wander and to find
To uncover and to produce
To escape inside the mind
To follow always, and to let loose

It waits and knows you’ll come back
And when you return it claps and claps
Forever you will have each other
It calls and will never ask for a cover
