Did you count the leaves of sycamore trees
before the storm blew through

Do you count the tears, in all the years
of spilled wine and roses, gone

Did you caress the face, for whom pleads the case
of healing for those who know not, your name

Do you lead, for whom concede
the knowing purpose of love and life

Do you answer, these questions prattered
in silent solemn song


The answer yes, to these requests
for all who, sought, and seek

And in the time, with reason kind
you'll know these riddles, dear

For all hearts' murmurs, call forth the turners
of fortune's fabulous wheel

And ye reveal, with enlightened zeal
the answers for which they ask...
