Robin Williamson - Verses at Powis lyrics



old men star in the waters
they do not see a face
just days gone by

young men stare in the water
they do not see a face
just some image of desire

river of blood, river of tears
may you forget my face
with the others
I stare in your waters
expecting no reflected dream

I am a lover of the steady earth
and of her waters

she says:
let the light be brilliant
to one who will cherish color;
what if there be no heaven?
she says:
touch my breasts
the fields are golden

her songs are all of love
life long
every blue yonder
her grass harp rings

unlettered
in her rivers our cherished sins
our musts drift voiceless
in her clouds

she will rust us with blossom
she will forgive us
she will seal us with her seed

fail and farewell to hell and heaven
made in a man's mind of fancy and fear
fail and farewell to all pit patter
made in a coward's heart that dares not endure

all that the learned can say
the birds sing
who praise every new heaven
of each day made new
