Sacandaga

Golden sunsets whisper
Pastel painted skys
Fading lights embrace
Hills of endless pine

Can you hear her calling
Dusks eternal blanket falls

Darkness rolling silent
Over mountains high
Hemlock bleeding warm sap
Leaves dance on autumn sky

Shadows move in softly
Creeping darkness falls
Ancient spirits whisper
Spells of Moon and earth

Seven sacred pines
Soaring ever high
A road to the stars
Painted cross the sky

Autumn wind comes softy
Kisses my bare chest
Ancestral strength consumes me
I am reborn

Skyward we rise
Over moss encrusted hemlock
To awaken the hearts of long forgotten gods
Spirits of the forest are flowing through my body
Bestowing great strength and the will to carry on

The passage of time slows to a soft whisper
Like wind in the pines while the creek flows softly by
A blackened wolf spirit with feral eyes of fire
Watches from the shores of the river of my mind

Awakened by the vision of a thousand lives before me
My spirit flies free on the hallowed winds of time
And as the dream fades and my mortal form becomes me
The wolf's gaze sets upon me and our spirits intertwine

A celestial womb of ash
Burns beyond her eyes of fire
A Celestial womb of ash
Behind the eyes of her spirit
