Sent to all
Mark Cloutier 1972 (Kaneohe)
Send all of it
To those sent to them
As well spent gifts
Of lights of the world
In the darkness of time
And stars cast Into
The space and outer
Worlds beyond this region
They will return to us
As lights of this world
Of those unknown
Of regions and seasons
Of where we have gone
To the outermost realms
Of a world that is first
And last of all creation
And those who return
Will be sent again
Birthed to the earth
And cleansed by waters
That are many
And a voice of thunder
Stills the minds of those
Sent to all
