Do you know who I am?		
snowmelt in the canyon		
water flowing down			

Do you know who I am?		
listen to the canyon walls		
echoing my song			

days lengthen				
imperceptibly and water flows	
like piano chords			

winter standstill isn’t checkmate
listen closely to the hammer
and the nail splitting ice	

sunlight melts the shadows		
and like a bird that scrambles 		
from the fowler’s snare		
water rushes down			

water rushes down
