Arising fallen

Arising fallen

24 November 2013

In every green leaf I see your face

Remembrance of forgotten grace

In every lost moment every ripple

Wings vanished, a walking cripple

Heaving with the renewed anguish

Of the loss of yonder soaring relish

 

Eyes born into an unseeing world

But as the body turned and swirled

Glimpses of a long forgotten past

Stilled in heart rhythm stirred fast

A waking of my senses brought

A world within that heart forgot

 

It is of you yet heeds not thy course

Sucking in reminders of thy source

Ten thousand years swirled and flew

Memories of you that we once knew

In darkness of secret lay hidden deep

As Millennium lulled the soul to sleep

 

I hear your words, ten thunders’ voice

Let us now in our stilled hearts rejoice

For as it plays your own wondrous part

With soulless yet with good student art

They wake and see from you the form

Of it the treachery guileless, difform
