Lilting Song Sweet

moments of fulfillment and knowing true

purpose and vision a destined you

another heart, another soul, a path be shown

gathered be the pain, the resolve, the joy known

from the ancients echoes of wisdom in resounding accord

the counsel of kings, queens, sages, and a blessed Lord

hear I the robin redbreast, a lilting song sweet

branch and bough and wings alight do meet

touched by the yet brilliant setting sun

thoughts, reflections, gentle winds call as ONE.


In loving dedication to:
