I have known the burdens of my heart
Consumed with the fire that burns
As bright as the evening star
Troubled within the confusion of life's illusion
Shall I question thee before I sleep
Will my soul awaken and cover me
As I wait for you by the seed of the naked flame
Beneath the lights of the heavens
In the stillness of the night
Cover me oh wait for me
Beneath the northern lights
For the fires that burn before us
Will outlast us
Will the essence of our light keep us
Beneath the stars tonight
A last goodbye, farewell
To you my love
Beneath the northern lights
Absolutely beautiful, moving poetry, Darryn: I love anything to do with space and sky. Have never seen the Northern Lights, but would love to. Well done!
Dear readers, this is my third book of poems, and inside are a special collection of what have turned out to be not only MY personal favorites, but also the favorites of many of YOU. Some of these have never been available in print before...
The songs and art in this book are about our collective emergence after the pandemic and trauma of the last few years - comprised of 5 collections: World as Refuge, Where We Live, In Our Hands, Rhythms of Change and What We See & Sow.
