A Bolt Of Blazing Gold
A bolt of blazing gold,lifted from the horizon's edgeAnother radiant dawn sends new hope,avowed my hearty pledgeMy yearning to be partof nature's truthful solitudeOf wisdom's inner lightthat shines in mystic multitudeThe guiding source within,so few of us will ever knowAnd few will ever climbthe great world-tree from which we've grownBut those who seek will findthe rhythm that vibrates high and farAnd rearrange the cosmic threads,the pattern of the Weave of Stars
A bolt of blazing gold,a sunfire in zenith hurledOh, wingless skydancer,rejoiced upon the warmth unfurledWhat wonders do you hold ensnaredwith your mighty heart?What secrets may be mineto brother-share as we depart?
Of richest emerald forged,my soul still rises, longinglyFrom inferno's winding caverns,through dark air soaring, restlesslyIf silence was enough!No words can grasp my starkest thoughtsNo language known to manportrays my naked sentiment
A bolt of blazing gold,swallowed by the waveless seaThe ocean-winds set sail,in breeze towards their destinyOn solarbeams they rode,white sea-gull-wings in harmonyFor a moment's startling glimpsea sienna-burnt tranquility
Oh father of the coloured sky,unwear thy robe of shadowhoodLet nature's soul once clash again'neath blooming glades of goldenwood
We're the ones who seekto dance to fallen serenadesThe magic hymns of gold;as softly sung, the sunlight fades...away
Of richest emerald forged,my soul still rises, longinglyFrom inferno's winding caverns,through dark air soaring, restlesslyIf silence was enough!No words can grasp my starkest thoughtsNo language known to manportrays my naked sentiment
A world of silent stone,as frozen in the nightly skyIn heaven's dark recesses laid,no living soul draws nighFor seconds all is still,no moonlight heaves throughout the darkNor do the heavens breathe,no dryads wreathe within the dark
Within my dark domain…
