Sundown Path

Snow slowly covers cold ground
White veil of ice frozen bound
Over the chimneys, over grey trees
Slowly flowing a stream of deep childish dreams

Meadow of life, carnival of lust
Purity lost in insanity
Play of a poet, dreamy-eyed child
Light from the past
Untouched memory
Innocent song of a kindest heart

Walk along the shore
See the ship forlorn
Near lighthouse find a path
Leading to North
This journey starts on dawn

Wind in the field
Dream deep in heart
Secret hideaway, forgotten old path

Meadow of life, carnival of love
Purity of innocence
End of lonely nights
Song of an owl, a swan and a dove
Burnt wings — dark ashes on the snow

Heart of a poet, dreamy-eyes child
Light of the past, pure angel lying in dust
Snow revived deep memories so white
Dearest dreams of a hoping heart

Wind in the field
Dream deep in heart
Secret hideaway, forgotten old path
Through the sundown…
