A sun going down I'd like to capture //
In painting or song the motion and mood //
A sky Ii would steal if it could be held fast //
The wind dies away it's perfectly still //
You can't exceed that kind of sundown //
Enormous beautiful heartbeat of earth //
It's so smooth and still it's so restless //
Concentration beginning and end
The moon rising high light in the darkness //
Creating a gleam you can't really grasp //
Somehow unreal both tempting and scaring //
Indistinct phase vague and reserved //
You can't eclipse that kind of moonrise //
Magical heartbeat of earth //
It's so slow and still it's so restless //
Steadily taking its course
Sound of a heartbeat //
Stable and certain - life //
Breath of a new day //
Welcomed in wonder
