I lay upon the cool green grass
And watched the evening sky,
But touched in the West with a hint of Gold.
>From over the emerald sea
Night was slowly creeping
Bringing the sparks of light
That hint of wonders beyond
Thee Cape of Darkness.
And when the transformation was complete,
When the rolling Earth had carried me
Far from the Motherlight,
I saw the silver disc of the Moon
Hanging low and glowing on the horizon.
The wind plucked at the trees
And played its melody ____
The song of the wind
And a moonlight night.
The filmy slips of moonlight
Danced across the trees
And where their delicate glow touched
The leaves were as pearl.
I lay in the grass and felt the touch
Of the moonlight like a gentle hand
Upon my cheek.
The Moon is a woman with silver hair
Who knows the secrets of the Universe.
Her azure eyes have seen all things.
Behind her coral lips lie silent
The tales of Past and Future.
I crossed the Rivers of Time and Tomorrow
And walked among dreams with the crystal woman.
And she told me the secrets that I longed to know.
And then ...
Why must I awake to this earth?
Bound here by life and death___?
Why must the maiden fade from me
And the glorious images grow faint ...
Disappear ...?
What did she tell me in the land of Tomorrow?
What things?
Why can't I remember?
Oh, God, must I die
And never know ...?
