lyrics

After the wild darkness
Of that estuary weathered
Sailing- wind filled night
Rocking, caravanseried
In her weft of sleep
Beneath the crimson Mandala
Balmed by the Buddha
She’s deep down ,deep down –
And to awake then
To a world washed clean,
A gift unbidden
Simply there
The consequence of stratospheres
While the world spun
So fast ,she could not know
The feeling of it
Hefted in gravity
On that shore of light
She’s sure of light.
And so it came
On a gentle westerly
Birdfilled, early cusp of Autumn dawn
Dancing the trees to life
Returning to her
Consciousness of being
There , on that estuary of slow
Salty drift and flow
Light and dark
Love and light
Drift and flow.
