if ritual words still hold powers I sing these to the air and deal the stories all way round fairly and with grace I sing them as Matins and Nocturns as a field of dusty grain as a hollow that holds the feel of sweet and a brook of dragonflies I sing them as wind on grass blade to blade as motes riding a beam of yellow sunlight yes motes there’s the song a gentle back and forth rise and fall first one then the other motes bound in warm wrapped in each other forgetting separate motes ritual words eternal song |

I sing them as Matins and Nocturns as a field of dusty grain as a hollow that holds the feel of sweet and a brook of dragonflies This is incredibly vivid and unique phrasing that is all your own. Love your style. |
