| A bolt of blazing gold
|
| Lifted from the horizon’s edge
|
| Another radiant dawn sends new hope
|
| Avowed my hearty pledge
|
| My yearning to be part
|
| Of nature’s truthful solitude
|
| Of wisdom’s inner light
|
| That shines in mystic multitude
|
| The guiding source within
|
| So few of us will ever know
|
| And few will ever climb
|
| The great world-tree from which we’ve grown
|
| But those who seek will find
|
| The rhythm that vibrates high and far
|
| And rearrange the cosmic threads
|
| The pattern of the Weave of Stars
|
| A bolt of blazing gold
|
| A sunfire in zenith hurled
|
| Oh, wingless skydancer
|
| Rejoiced upon the warmth unfurled
|
| What wonders do you hold ensnared
|
| With your mighty heart?
|
| What secrets may be mine
|
| To brother-share as we depart?
|
| Of richest emerald forged
|
| My soul still rises, longingly
|
| From inferno’s winding caverns
|
| Through dark air soaring, restlessly
|
| If silence was enough!
|
| No words can grasp my starkest thoughts
|
| No language known to man
|
| Portrays my naked sentiment
|
| A bolt of blazing gold
|
| Swallowed by the waveless sea
|
| The ocean-winds set sail
|
| In breeze towards their destiny
|
| On solarbeams they rode
|
| White sea-gull-wings in harmony
|
| For a moment’s startling glimpse
|
| A sienna-burnt tranquility
|
| Oh father of the coloured sky
|
| Unwear thy robe of shadowhood
|
| Let nature’s soul once clash again
|
| 'Neath blooming glades of goldenwood
|
| We’re the ones who seek
|
| To dance to fallen serenades
|
| The magic hymns of gold;
|
| As softly sung, the sunlight fades
|
| …Away
|
| Of richest emerald forged
|
| My soul still rises, longingly
|
| From inferno’s winding caverns
|
| Through dark air soaring, restlessly
|
| If silence was enough!
|
| No words can grasp my starkest thoughts
|
| No language known to man
|
| Portrays my naked sentiment
|
| A world of silent stone
|
| As frozen in the nightly sky
|
| In heaven’s dark recesses laid
|
| No living soul draws nigh
|
| For seconds all is still
|
| No moonlight heaves throughout the dark
|
| Nor do the heavens breathe
|
| No dryads wreathe within the dark
|
| Within my dark domain… |
