Avalon Dreams

 

Although
I've now ridden on the back

Of the mystical White Stag 

Over the steep crest

The final green hill
Of Avalon 

To a new country
Down that old road

Although the Moon 
Riding high in the night sky

Surveying the stillness 

To now thinking
I'm where I belong 

And you're there
Just somewhere

Lost to me 

Fear not
For in another lifetime
Soon to come 

We'll drink some more red wine from the Sacred Jue 

And swim in Father Times

Neverending sea 

Where there are no farewells

And no goodbyes

For nothing is taboo 

For the power of our circle
Never lies 

It binds us
Eminently in two 

By an obligation that cannot be broken

Once spoken 

Into a niche 

A place of serenity

Between all worlds 

So hold strong 

As it pulls us together
To renew 

For in the silvery mists
We will be reunited in time again 

With a walk through the fallen down leaves

Of the Grieving Groves
Just you and me

To then walk into the bright glorious sunlight 

Smiling and singing 

Together
Forever and ever 

As St. Peter's
The Eternal Toll Keepers 

Golden bells
Start ringing
