ABIDE
Forgive me if I forget with the birdsong
and the day’s last glow
folding into the hands of the trees,
forgive me the few syllables of the autumn crickets,
the year’s last firefly winking
like a penny in the shoulder’s weeds,
if I forget the hour,
if I forget the day as the evening star
pours out its whiskey over the gravel
and asphalt I’ve walked for years alone,
if I startle when you put your hand in mine,
if I wonder how long your light has taken to reach me here.
-Jake Adam York

Beautiful!
Dr. Seighman is a class act through and through.
Did not see any credit given to Jake Adam York for the incredibly beautiful words?
Just saw this note. His name was originally listed -- see in the description under the lyrics.
