WOODS ETERNAL


Forests green and trees entwined,

withered trunks and branches bare

forests young in dancing rain,

memories and wisdom rare


Oaks and elms and willows fair,

all in different shape and form

some grow tall and some grow small,

from an oak a leaf is torn


In the morning’s golden light,

hold me while the wild winds blow

hold me near and hold me tight

and sometimes let me go


Branches swaying in the wind,

stretching up towards the skies

branches bowing to the earth,

wondering what yonder lie


Some have shared to little soil

others grew to bold

Others broke in thunderstorms,

or froze in wintry cold



ROWAN’S SONG


In the beginnings place,

born of the morning mist

a unicorn in shining light,

leaping through the air


Broken free of chains,

of emerald blazing fire

lost beneath the sea,

held by silvery strings


Tales of ancient times,

by lakes of burning blue

fate, will and legends,

mingles and come true


In the beginnings place,

never to be touched again

near the fairy’s edge,

seeds of green and gold


Longing to become,

a creature of light

moving swiftly through the night,

a moment of whispering time



ELEGY (unknown author)


Do not stand on my grave and weep,

I am not there, I did not sleep

I am a thousand winds that blow,

I am the diamonds glint on snow

I am the sunlight on ripened grain,

I am the gentle autumn rain

When you awaken in the morning’s hush,

I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds

in circled flight,

I am the soft stars that shine at night
