lyrics

juncos sing from the boughs of this old oak forest
as the days quicken and our paths entwine further
bound to the spirit
the melody echoes beyond recognition

where do these colors come from rising at dusk
parting the clouds for a glimpse of the sky's true name
woven with longing
into this landscape that has known me from my youth

shadows of bare branches grow in the fading light
where the deer silently encircled the path
land of long neglect
help me to know in full what is only seen in part
