Dead of the winter on the slow march home
Frozen a nature ever meant to roam
She planned a journey with no passage back
Only to finish here afore the track
Staring as stone-faced as sad cliffs inspire
Memories dancing to the end of fire
Burnt a great chapter of the heartfelt quest
In the warm ash fell from love’s ardent crest
Here in this cabin of the wintry wood
Place of cold darkness where warm faith once stood
She settles inward to reflect upon
That love of millions in an age bygone
Kneeling at lakeshore where the mountains lie
She had drank deeply from the echoed sky
There to see vividly the first-time scars
Lit in a mirror by the nearer stars
Life of the summer and the seed cast on
Hastening colours of a nascent dawn
Millions of songbirds singing new love’s call
Millions of new leaves soon to know the fall
Tracing faint heartsteps through the grande mêlée
Gone to the quiet of a torrid day
Only cicadas and the mournful dove
Speak on through silence in the name of love
That love of millions is not won on stage
Nor in arenas, nor the fleeting page
It offers droplets to a heart in pain
Damp on the rock face of a misty rain
It writes a letter to the dying whale
Under high clamour of a stormy gale
From all the lone ones across oceans vast
That love of millions to come home at last
