The Purple Trail

Yes, you say, one evening’s like another
Bronze and listless time the shadows fall
Streets full of soft, indifferent slumber
That steeps you in the darkness, after all

But the evening is a distant town
Where shadows gather in troops of brown
The moon returns to her lonely books
And sighs for how words fail
While the mountain wears a cloud
With a purple trail…

Wind tonight that whistles through the tree limbs
Vacant sky more vacant on the stream
Day departs upon her golden phoenix
And night begins to wake us for the dream.

And the evening is a distant town
Where shadows gather in troops of brown
They hover for another look
And dusk lets down its veil
While the mountain wears a cloud
With a purple trail…

Willow branches bright with silver monkeys
Down they dive to try and catch the moon
So too, lovers fumble with their longing,
And drown within some darker afternoon.

And the evening is a distant town
Where shadows gather in troops of brown
The moon returns to her lonely books
And sighs for how words fail
While the mountain wears a cloud
With a purple trail…

Still the evening is a distant town
Where shadows gather in troops of brown
They hover for another look
And dusk lets down its veil
While the mountain wears a cloud
With a purple trail…
