ONE STEP
Just one step towards the gentle kiss will bring about the stern caress of the nightmare
She gallops through the dark to bring you warning in hopes of beating the dawn
What follows behind defies description and what are left are the prints of doom
Still, hope doesn’t always have to be misleading as it reaches for the prize of fortune
The breath of life can be delivered when someone takes an interest in grave digging
But the angels’ chorus isn’t always in unison especially when they’re singing the blues
It’s the tick tock tapping out the time of tolling
It’s in the hardness of the rock that won’t quit rolling
“Let me up!” yells the beggar who left a long time ago
“Let me in.” weeps the soldier we don’t want to know
“Be happy” chirps the Robin
“Let me have it” laughs the Crow
Sell me oil for my lamp
Put a smile on my soul
