Stonefruit

Dearheart
Take a look at you
I know how it feels
Branches full of fruit

Life streaks
And surges all in green
The bounty of the rain
The bounty of the spring

Dearheart
You can’t keep them all
I wait with eyes closed
I’ll lighten your load

Truth hurts
Remember this:
We are pooling our faith
(You said it)

Asking for my basketful

Shake loose
All your garnet jewels
Whatever sustains me
Gifts and pampers you

Trees drop
Plums in my open mouth
I wait with eyes closed
Paradise my own

Truth hurts
Hold onto this:
We are pooling our faith
(You said it)

Juice bursts
Don't let it drip
We are pooling our faith
(You said it)
