To Higher Climes Where Few Might Stand |
Beyond the feeble reaches |
Of conscious memory |
A voice long forgotten |
Echoes through the chamber of my thoughts |
I cannot recall |
The speaker or what was spoken |
Just a whisper now |
Still, it’s crying, screaming, wanting to be known |
As dawn greets dew-wet grass |
A brother returns at last |
Seven years in patience passed |
Long since have I laid my dreams to ash |
Oh rekindled Flame |
Dare not speak His name |
Oh unfettered son |
What gifts you were given |
Why, then, did you run? |
As night drapes silted shores |
No laughter is heard anymore |
Tales of terror and of war |
Hang heavy in the dampened midnight air |
Oh, recall the dream |
Hunger’s rising scream |
Rays of glinting light |
Glancing off dew-wet blades this night |
I was there |
Where once our fathers rode |
Beyond this mortal coil |
Toward that precipice of stone |
Which stands unchanged, uncaring, and old |
Countless wonders I have seen |
Endless skies of emerald green |
Minds can never idle be |
When magic stirs beyond the trees |
You know things of which I speak |
Secrets buried deep beneath |
Still eclipsed in jaded truth |
By the nameless wonders of my youth |
Oh, recall the dream |
(In dreams we cannot die) |
Hunger’s rising scream |
(It calls us to its side) |
Rays of glinting light |
Glancing off dew-wet blades this night |
Come with me to better days |
To higher climes where few might stand |
And never shall we tread again |
On silted shores, on blackened sand |
