Gracefully the years roll on
echo ever after
their distant rumble leads you on
you rush you stumble then you're gone
so soon
Longing for the farthest door
silence ever after
the oath you took to wage the war
the fist you shook so high before
the night you saw belied by the moon
That night you saw belied by the moon
has come again to sow
a seed that we must know
Waiting for the clearest light
certain ever after
the bodhi tree repels the night
but all you see is spirits in their plight
and dearth
Listening by the farthest door
humble ever after
the sun you grew the stars you wore
reflecting you to light the lore
they shine upon the fate of the Earth
That light upon the fate of the Earth
has come again to sow
a seed that we must know
And fine and pure
it must endure
under the strain and strife
that wise and true
the real you
may find the water of life
Behind your eyes
in stillness lies
a quiet pool of view
though fine and pure
it will endure
what ever life ever knew
You
traveled by the faintest song
learning ever after
to nurse the flame and keep it strong
to glean the face of endings that are long
begun
Leaving by the farthest door
sacred ever after
your final word was nothing more
than waves we heard caress the shore
you reached before you sailed for the sun
That shore you reach to sail for the sun
has come again to sow
a seed that we must know
has come again to sow
a seed that we must know
