By tropical waters, she waits by the shore
Waits for a man who comes by no more...
So here I am beside the lake
Where in past seasons I had run...
How sad the clouds that once graced my day
Drift slowly now to the horizon...
In the mystic moments of Winter's silent scene
Lies a realm of moonlight, so precious and serene...
The desolate graveyards of yesterday's tears
Are lying below me in wilderness clears...
Sapphire blue and cirrus white
Silver smile of bright moonlight...
Suspended from sleep like a feather floating in...
The ways of the night I feel...
Summer reigns in the depths of my heart
As hope's budding seeds make their start...
Ancient moon,
Guardian of truth...
Jade mystic pond in mind's eye shimmering,
With its ghostly mist dream barriers...
Translucent blades go flashing down from misty...
Scorching electric light and flaming swords plow...
If you could see the tapestry of life on which all...
Then you'd feel the purpose to which we've all...
