All By Its' Right Name

Hello, morning dew

So sweetly you have collected in the morning meadow

Of peace and sincerity

You speak so eloquently

And, with authority devoid of means

So that in the end

No one may accuse you otherwise



Hello, Mourning Dove

Your song is so full of unmolested love

It’s not hard to recognize

Your name as a disguise

So that we might find irony in ourselves

By looking within before out

So that we might call all by its’ right name



Eventually the sun must rise in order to set

And, oh, how I’ll miss you once you’ve left



Hello, midnight moon

Punctually, it’s amazing your clockwork has never failed you

Or the source by which you’re lit

Bathed in a light you’ve never met

But, unselfishly reflect so we won’t forget the truth

Of purpose in every thing

From the smallest atom to the grandeur of Heaven



And, since the sun has set, it must now again rise

And, oh, how I’ve missed your light in my eyes
