Program Notes

Church

 

i like how the church bells sing the time to me 

and to us from the church a few blocks away 

let us let each other be

 

the kettle sings when it’s ready

the streets hum throughout the day

i like how the church bells sing the time to me

 

the feral cats here are well-loved and chubby 

forever the firetrucks howl and the sirens bay 

let us let each other be

 

where familiar faces fill the deli 

neighbors murmur, ceiling creaks, music, sway 

i like how the church bells sing the time to me

 

the leaves in summer rejoice when it’s rainy 

the news was bad and it was chilly for May 

let us let each other be

 

be kind, listen, be brave, try a little daily 

see how the sun beckons bodies outside to play 

i like how the church bells sing the time to me 

let us let each other be

-Riley Rennhack
