Velvet

Velvet

A handful of diamonds scattered
On the black velvet dawn of the hovering sky
Sparks on a stone beside me
While I’m watching the moon go scuttling by

Under the sky I’m lying
Open to the nighttime wind and magical lands
Leaving the day behind me
Dipping my mind in streams of fog running out of my hands

Gentle feet drumming stone
Simple dance all alone and a prayer
Take me too when you go stepping through wind

Lying alone past twilight
Shadows from the moonlight dance in and out of my mind
The sound of the cool clean water
Carries my thoughts through currents free ancient and divine

Gentle feet drumming stone
Simple dance all alone and a prayer
Take me too when you go stepping through wind

Gentle feet drumming stone
Simple dance all alone and a prayer
Take me too when you go stepping through wind
