A storm howls in my soul A wild torrent of madness Feral, dark and raw Echoing my longing Through the ancient pines
The forest bears witness To the spell that forms upon my lips A ritual woven of hope and aching desire Whispered to the swaying trees Witnessed by a blanket of starlight
There I stand in the darkness Digging my roots deep into the moss below Anchored in the solace of the Earth Awaiting the rebirth that comes With in the illumination of the Moon
I am the altar Upon which the winds of change do blow Here I wait in silent worship Surrendering at the edge of the unknown Opening to all that lies beyond
At long last she rises A jewel shining on the horizon Calling to the depths of my spirit A feast of night-song to sooth these weary bones Her great strength granted to my outstretched branches
Here my spirit is born Here where all things Are eternally free
