He sits alone beneath a
raven moon
This aged warrior remembers his youth
For a few moments...he holds her once again
That love he shared that made his heart into truth
In the shadows she waits...as in years past ,long ago
He sees her face in the shadows of moon 's glow
His eyes close... and he feels her touch so soft
This woman sent to him...so very long ago
And once again they are in the barn's loft
The night is filled with the sounds of earth song all
around
Scents of sweet roses in her hair , fills his heart with
passion
And for hours the earth ceases to be beneath them.
Only the song of her soul is heard as they come down
together and touch the ground.
And in the stillness of night...
he hears her call his
name from
afar.
He stands ...to follow her voice and whispers her name..
Then he realizes he was dreaming again.,
and fate was
playing it's foolish game.
