And the day began

AND THE DAY BEGAN (D A D G B E, capo 3)

And the day began, unlike any other. Though we hardly noticed at first.

But as the day wore on, colours got brighter and sounds rang sharper and our hearts began to open like pores in a hot shower.

 

And the differences we were grateful for. While everything that stayed the same propelled us.

We didn’t need anyone to tell us or help us or stop us.

 

And the day never ended but we went to sleep.

And eventually a new one began.
