Already Breath-taken

 




Already breath-taken
Ere buds fully waken
And silence is broken
By leaf-token’s laud
Already dumbfounded
By beauty unbounded
For we are surrounded
By glimpses of God

Already enchanted
By blooms, still unplanted
And tree-tops half-glistered
In whispers green-gold
Already delighted
By dreams unrequited
Yet we are excited
To watch them unfold

Already forgotten
Winter’s frigid cotton
And battles we fought in
A world, cold and white
Already forgiven
The green side of livin’
Rolls out to blue heavens
In sighs of delight
