3. T__
eyes closed I summon you golden
child sitting cross legged in your door
every time when I look in the mirror
guitar cradled in your lap
following notes and chords
down a mossy path into a sunlit corner
only you could see
all these lines on my face getting clearer
and you I wonder where have you gone
since you bestowed your talisman on us?
always a lucky nut you said with a smile
like the full moon setting
the past is gone
and though I wish you only peacocks
hummingbirds and cranes
with my eyes closed I still see
you forever innocent of the crimes
perched like ravens in your future
