TO THE WIND

These are the people we won't be forgetting
These are the times that will stay with us
These are the tears we shed for beauty
These are the veils that hide our sorrow
These are the shoes we will step in so gently
These are the grounds we will walk on politely
These are the boxes that hold our wonders
These are the stones that mark our lost captains
This is the ship we will ride on to the wind
This is how we will try to glide
These are our angels who beat on somewhere
These are the drummers we are marching for
