Analysis of Lost from view
Mark cloutier 1972 (Kaneohe)
Lost from view
It moves and reappears
As it is found far and away
And also near to the truth
It appears as the moon
As clouds part
And it falls like stars
It then reappears like the sun
As clothed light covers us
It divides the darkness
Into the day and it's way
Differing in colors
New and old
As many waters flow
And thunder is heard
And the lightening is seen
Crossing the sky at night
And the rains wash away
The darkness to day
As the night divides the other side
And a voice is heard
In the distance undisturbed
It then awakes the one
Who knew no bounds
But was found in the sound
