Frosting

Bare branches blowing

Rain hits an evening window

The details are the frosting

They will repay you tenfold

Where there’s giving there’s receiving

It pays to pay attention

Leaves catching sunlight

Golden in the morning

Leaves when they’re in flight

Each other chasing

Where there’s giving there’s receiving

The details are the frosting

There’s magic waiting

In any given moment

Be captured 

Be taken

Be in the present

You’re here to be stolen

Most anything can keep, can hold on

You’re here to be stolen

Most anything can wait

Bare branches blowing

Rain hits an evening window

The streets you’re tired of

There’s more o them than you know

Where there’s giving there’s receiving

The details are the frosting
