ANCIENT SKY

Circles standing in holy ground
Stone rings follow the seasons round
Roofless walls rise in graceful arches
Secret doors lead to these far marches

Ancient sky: sacred stone: tender rain
Take my hand: read my heart: speak my name

Beauty holds us it wraps us round
With gentle stillness and silent sound
Twilight falls like a muslin curtain
Do we dare? How can we be certain?

Ancient stone: sacred vows: tenderness:
Sanctuary: honesty: promises:
All our souls: all our lives: nothing less:

We mingle laughter with sudden tears
I'll sing for you, don't care who hears
Stand so close that your eyes reflect me
Stand so still, fold your arms around me

Ancient wind: sacred light: bless us now:
Tenderness: honesty: so we vow:
Trust your heart: trust in mine: trust is all:
Read my eyes: drink my tears: drink my soul;

Read my eyes: drink my tears: drink my soul
