"Thins the Veil"
by Dragon Moon Crafts
Age Group: Adult
“Thins the Veil”
The ever-fading embers glow,
As the long cold nights colder grow.
Each day, once given, now is sold,
Once more our aged year is old.
The dark, cold and cruel, the flames pale…
Between our two worlds, thins the veil.
Summer’s warming passes from us.
Autumn’s fires dancing vigorous.
Winter’s chill coming quick as frost.
Season’s now a bridge to life’s loss.
The dark, cold and cruel, the flames pale…
Between our two worlds, thins the veil.
The People roast the gathered corn,
In the sky, the approaching storm.
So much gained, this harvest we had,
Bountiful plentitudes so grand.
The dark, cold and cruel, the flames pale…
Between our two worlds, thins the veil.
The winter’s crisp bitter wind speaks,
Each weakness of our hearth it seeks.
We embrace warmth closer and dear,
Gnawing, nipping at us comes fear.
The dark, cold and cruel, the flames pale…
Between our two worlds, thins the veil.
Again, into this endless night,
The moon rides without hope in sight,
Great and swift rose the Heroes’ time.
Wheeling, wheeling, count the crows climb.
The dark, cold and cruel, the flames pale…
Between our two worlds, thins the veil.
Feasting now on the wasting wealth,
Leading later the slow death felt.
As the year fades and the sun dies,
Our labors and loves slow the cries.
The dark, cold and cruel, the flames pale…
Between our two worlds, thins the veil.
All our good work and hard won life,
Clan and Family, Elder and Wife,
Gathered here against the dark,
Our trees’ and fields’ emptiness stark.
The dark, cold and cruel, the flames pale…
Between our two worlds, thins the veil.
But on this long night, now not alone.
We have endured and will, as stone.
Here we stay, this day and always,
Waiting strong for the coming days.
The dark, cold and cruel, the flames pale…
Between our two worlds, thins the veil.
Thins the veil…
