Denmark

Ocean Blue

DENMARK (Schelzel)





Like mist or a daydream


made of substance


can you feel it?


buildings brown of a gray downtown


in the twilight


can you see it?


photographs


typographs


in the papers did you read it?


stop and blink


just what would you think


in the meantime does it matter much at all?





Denmark came and Denmark marked my soul





Songs for a real crowd in a cafe


full of listeners


know your tongue


and they know your man


in the crowd now did ya see her


airplanes


window panes


misting up the viewpoint


stop and blink


as I stop to think


I wonder would I miss her much at all





Denmark came and Denmark marked my soul





Muse for damp heart


in a country living softly


countless walks on a timeless way


in a body


filled with coffee


poetry


irony


of the moment


can you hear it?


stop and blink


as I stop to think


I wonder will I miss this much at all?
