Reclamation

Listen,

a distant whisper

echoing off the mountaintops.

Can you hear the bells chiming

from a church steeples clarion,

calling for you to come home.

There are times to remember

that leaves smiles on the clouds.

Can you see the sunlight sparkling

on the crystal clear lake

spelling words for you to gently come home.

Don’t be afraid to answer the angels

Can you hear the bells ringing

echoing off the mountaintops

calling for you to come home.
