The Gathering

Kari Rueslatten


She rises her head into the night 
-They gather every full moon 
She nods at her sister the time is right 
-They gather every full moon 

Join in the ring 
the fire will burn until morning 

They assemble to reach the mountain top 
-They gather every full moon 
The excitement is kept in suspense 
-They gather every full moon 

Join in the ring 
the fire will burn until morning 

The air is chilling the skin is bare 
-They gather every full moon 
but dance is surely to heat the atmosphere 
-They gather every full moon 

Join in the ring 
the fire will burn until morning 

Fierceness is turning them willing 
-They gather every full moon 
Nature approves on the sacrifices made 
-They gather every full moon 

Join in the ring 
the fire will burn until morning
