Say Yes
excerpt
This is for the possibility that guides us
and for the possibilities still waiting to sing
and spread their wings inside us,
'cause tonight Saturn is on his knees
proposing with all of his ten thousand rings
that whatever song we've been singing we sing even more.
Pull all your strings.
Play every chord.
If you're writing letters to prisoners
start tearing down bars.
If you're handing out flashlights in the dark
start handing out stars.
This is only a brief excerpt. Watch the rest of Andrea Gibson's piece here.
