Huntress

Oh, deep in the forest of old,
There lives a Huntress I'm told,
For I can faintly hear her singing,
Songs, sung from the beaks of the birds,
Every colour in her gentle words,
Beckons me to her light,
The trail leads me down to the edge of the woods,
And so I go seeking
From, atop of the tallest tree,
For as far as the eyes can see,
There she lays upon the fell
With her bow, her bow and her arrow,
She draws sharp and narrow,
And shoots it close within my stride
It was then that I knew that the stories were true,
And how I heard her calling
As the arrow did fly through the night,
The huntress then lay by my side,
And whispered softly in my ear
Love will find thee so free my boy,
So for now I just find my joy,
Just hear me calling when I sing’
The call, the call of the country comes,
So she flies with her feather and drums,
For my the lakes her heart does lay
And I know, I know soon again she’ll be gone,
So for now I must sing this song,
And I’ll be listening for her calling
The strangest of dreams occur in my sleep,
As I wake in the morning
Breathe, breathe in the open air,
And know that I’ll find her there,
In this land and in the sky,
In time, all that will be will be,
And I’ll be waiting with my strings and steed,
In other lives I’m sure to live
So endlessly her light leads me on, In the song of the siren

The Warmth & The Weight

Here’s to you my darlin’,
The sweetest chapter so far told,
My muse, my inspiration,
Honey, you must be on your way
And so I hold near and dear,
These thoughts and feelings we have found,
And in them I shall revel,
Until our time comes back around
I’m learning everyday,
That all things are temporary,
Even life, even love,
And good things come to those who wait,
So I’ll gladly endure the days till your by my side,
Along down the line
Now summers all since faded,
And the nights grow longer, colder still,
Seasons are turning and changing,
As she is the dusk and I the dawn
If there is one thing that I have learned,
Is you can’t have the sun without the rain,
And in all the brightness that love brings,
No shadows shall fall upon my days
I’m longing for the day,
When nothing is temporary,
In this life, And in this love,
Distance makes the heart grow fond,
And I’ll surely embrace the change with a patient mind,
A treasure may you find
