Dark Garden
At a crossroads in life
I shiver in my strife
I stand alone in the night
On a path thick with mud
Wise owl, where is your wisdom?
Where do I get the fervor from?
Crystal dew begins to enthrall
While Suicide Tree stands near
Diamond sparkles in the inky night
Brings a decision to greater height
Missing birds thread the air
Crocus tears fill my heart
Flower beads on rose thorns
Shine while the moon warns
I shiver in my strife
At my crossroads in life
Alone in the Night
As I sit alone in the night
Suicide Tree standing behind me
A lone owl quiets my fright
As it becomes a mortal tree
In the lightening dawn I now can see
The dew tipped rose and crocus petals
Draw me from the crossroads behind me
The sun shine shrinks the mud and nettles
The awakening of the birds, all free
Has awakened a thread of peace
The dark fervor shaken from me
Thorns in my heart release
