Inward drew
by Alisdaire
Age Group: Adult
There was a day
when the cool fresh breeze
filtered through the broad thick trees
laid upon the rivers edge the breath
Of the mornings Dew.
A song filled the air
one that held within it the fair
Cries of the thrush
That sang its ready chorus through
The moments shade
this play of immortals upon the land
Where Gods roamed with man.
A time when the world anew
dressed upon the thick veils
of this and the other realms
glimmered like a sacred jewel
The crown that fit the destined few
That would in time become the tales
that floats upon the valleys vales
and comes down through the passage of time
The stories of the old ones.
I see the old Gaelic tongue
switch craft upon the words it sung
Summoning the elements to the charge
of the will of the Druids at large
and here upon the hush of day
The dragon knew its merry way
and crisp as the dew upon the ground
man to man in wisdom found
The lays of the world.
Times when old and young were bound
to the sacred will that flowed around
Held the visions of the morning bright
where magic gleamed first its light
and drew upon the structures of the world
The ways from which we spring.
That day to light as dark to night
holds us all imprisoned within
to the loss we feel and know to true
that this world is now but a glimmer, a hue
of all that once sprang eternal and grand
when Gods touched the mortal hand
and talked with us of the ways
laid our world to the dazzled days
when light birthed ever anew
the souls of mortal that inward drew
The blessings of their sound.
