Raventhrone

The Wayfarers Song

Raventhrone


the rain is clearing 
over my father's land 
a cloud in the distance fades away 
over hilltops a gust 
of wind now sharply blows 
bringing the mist down 
low unto the sea 

thousands of feet way up 
above th land 
an eagle dares 
and spreads his wings 
a kingdom of silence 
where only you may go 
across the wide open seas 
and ports of call... 

haste not now, 
as the night will fall 
bring us a tale from your 
homeland far away... 
gather here at the fire pit, 
the share the glory of old 
visit the places that dreams errect 
the lands that are found 
very far from here 
see the ruins as they drape 
the horizons 
kissing the sky farewell 

the robe of dusk now engulfs 
the world again 
a river mutters its lullaby 
so silently 
a gust of wind carries 
the song away 
to weary heroes who follow the 
serenades...back home
