And so here I sit to ponder of my lovelies face
As winds of cold are blowing back my hair
Calling me to fallow I hear her waiting there
My feet do feel to weak to stand, so my love is ever waiting
The grass of green has made me see the error of my waking
I slept beside the river as it sounded in my mind
Maker of such dreaming the woman I will find
So now I seek the second turn the answer to the spell
The crooning of the summer love, the crooning of the winter
A melancholic song that eats away the lonely soul
I’ve searched to find a warmth to keep away the pyre
I search to find my lovely that only I desire

Now cool breezes do caress
I see into the future of the seasons cold beauty
I see that the cold is the path to wanting warmth
Futures do so find a resolution in such dyer harmonies
Can my sunshine fall upon me as I beside the river sleep?
I have seen simple ideas as I wandered this forest
For she has taught me many things
I see now that no man can see as all men truly should
She has given questioning that all men mustn’t see
What is wrong with you she said at first to me
My answer was a foolish one I said I am but man
Her laugh did startle me for she told me what a fool
An animal a beast you seem forgetful of your place
All thinking, walking, moving things have only but one face
But you as all your head high breed believe yourself the higher
And so you are the blinded fools that can get yourself no higher
I felt a great bemusement and fell into a cave
I spent so many hours there until I understand









I am the two-toed wanderer
