Daniel Romano
Blue Heron
Once there was a dream
But it's gone away
Uncertainty has been
Lead to the fray
The poet is dead
But his memory remains

A blue heron on the uneven floor
A blue heron at the capitol door
A blue heron in love and in war

Where are the lovers
Animalized
Where are the lovers
Set to the skies
Where are the lovеrs
Now realized
As a blue hеron
As a blue heron

Open your mind
As you once did your arms
Hush the raging night
And its endless alarms
I'm drenched in the blood of my being
But its really of no meaning
A blue heron on the uneven floor
A blue heron at the capitol door
A blue heron in love and in war

Where are the lovers
Animalized
Where are the lovers
Set to the skies
Where are the lovers
Now realized
As a blue heron
As a blue heron
