Makes no difference where you go
Every journey ends
Each new landscape now you know
Is a steping-stone
Till you're safe at home

Purple clouds, grey winds that rage,
Lightning lines pale white-
Choose new colors, turn the page
Where there is no storm
And you're safe at home

Crayon sun above you
In a blue crayon sky
Little one, I love you
You're the reason that
I am here

Once inside just close the door
Leave the world behind
Love is what we're living for
Love and love alone
To be safe at home

You asleep in my arms under crayon
Sunlight-yellow
By the opal pool
All the long afternoons in the crayon
Sunlight-yellow
By the opal pool
And both of us safe at home
And everyone safe at home

(for Clara, September 13
