Are You

by Lisa Cowper

In the field I sit and look up at the sky,
wondering what it's like up in the world of skies.

And when I see a cloud pass by,
I wonder are you on it?

And when the sun rises and falls can you really see it?
Or in the black of night are you among the stars?
Maybe you're the bright one flickering on so bright.

Are you in the wind as I feel it rush me by?
Is it your hands I feel on a cold and windy night?

Are you whispering in my ear as the wind flies by?
Do you have a secret or are you saying hi?

Are they your tears when it starts to rain?
And are you crying for us in this world of shame?

And when I see shadows in the middle of the night,
is it your reflection as you're flying by?

I wonder and I wish I knew this to be true today.
New life is full of secrets in so many wonderful ways.
