Sun Came Up

from Perseids by David Burchfield

lyrics

When the sun came up
On the canyon
The water shone
With a light clear enough
To be translucent
We washed our feet

Our clothes
The embers stirred
From the night before

And packing up
All in a bag
As if it were
All that we owned
All that we needed
We walked up to
The ridge and saw
The peaks all around us
And I saw you
For the first time
The city’s behind us
