A Song of Fools and Lovers
Also known as Death Song
She sang a song
of a world of starry skies,
of Summer rain
and flower-scented air…
She sang a song
of love and joy and loss,
of fleeting childhood
a marriage bed
a passing age…
She sang a song of kings and queens gone by
she sang of magic, learning, crafts
she sang of men found guilty sent to hang
…and women turning vile…
Death has a warm bed,
Death takes us all…
She sang of fools and lovers in the grass
She sang a song
of forces drawing us appart
of friends and teachers
and those who hide…
She sang a song
of snowflakes on her skin,
a love eternal
a change of stage
the end of life…
She sang a song of kings and queens gone by
she sang of magic, learning, crafts
she sang of men providing peace and warmth
…and women dancing in the light…
Death has a warm bed
Death takes us all
She sang of fools and lovers in the grass…
