Four Secrets from the Sun

 

I.Break of Daylight Now...(Morning)


Hear the raven's call,
in darkness, immersed in tangerine light.
See the moon fall,
sun shrouded in echoes of the night.


Sky in shades and shards,
clouds pierce the bleeding horizons,
brilliant blue encroaches on
the inflamed atmosphere.


Lost wanderer,
hold on to the break of daylight now.


II.River People...(Day)


Morning fades…
turns gray...
gentle mist in the coolness.


Sing the river's song.
Magic, flowing through my sight.
Just as love is never wrong,
skies are never without light.


Strange people,
with flowers in their hair
dance in the caves
of brilliant roses.


Daughter, the day the sun blew the clouds away
the trees told me the secrets for you…
River People sing to the wonder of the day
and I believe them to be true.


Sweet Rose,
love of the thorn…
the Lizard witnessed
the Earth be born.


And though one day we die,
we bask in the light of day,
and watch as the sun feeds off the eye
and listen to all the River People say.


Lifesong sings,
in a curious place…
where the bushes sing fire
but do not burn.


Listen quietly to those who thrive,
who have fingers made of feathers.
Teach children to be alive
through the rain and weather.


Lost wanderer,
sing to the star kids now…


III.Star Kids... (Night)


Mr. Moon,
Silver Father from above.
Companions union in June.
Share thoughts of love.


...Continuum
Supernova.
Beautiful…
Time.


Can we love the way we feel?
The way factories forbid?
Can nature's love make me heal?
Can we sing the songs of Star Kids?


...Shatter the sky
Bringer of war.
Peace…
Race.


When you’re at the end.
And the rings sit in black silence…
The way you feel is your only friend,
Until I see on the dawns flying islands.


Lost wanderer,
feel the songs of the Earth.


IV. Planet Noise (Eclipse)


Listen.
Do you hear?
I do believe it’s true…
It is real.


The People and the Star Kids choose to live
beyond the reaches of consciousness.


Listen.
Do you know?
I do believe it’s true…
Fear destroys.
