Nail In The Sky

The considerate morning
burns off the treacherous dark
and you celebrate that spangle and spark
scattering the ashes
made from such a blazing bright might
it shatters the shadows
with such a sacred light
never going to leave
this heart alone
hammer of the gods
leaves a nail in the sky
home is where
the hat’s hung high
the meticulous morning
sears off the foggy dark
and you savor that spangle
with an amazing spark
she’s never going to leave
these hearts alone
