Window
Window
One pane in one window At one side of the house, When the wind blows one way, Makes a small noise. | |
In the wind, in the wind, Our love is stirred By a rattling word Like a noise in the mind. | |
As the wind blows . So it shifts, so it makes No meaning for God's, Yours, anyone's sake. | |
Bring light, make a light In the big room. Get hammers here, Call our fathers to come. | |
In the wind, in the light, I see it plain, Out. Round about. I can mend a window pane . | |
