Legacy Name: JungleDruid

Pluck me a million stars from the sky
Give methe world in your eyes
Promise me a bouquet ofdreams
Fill my crane purse with the bleached bones
And thetiniest of gemstones
Sing me a song that will sway thegreenman timbers
Give me a drum with a steadyheartbeat
This is what I ask of you
Is it so much to offerthese
Or else give me your face
And it will shine likethe brilliant day
When my eyes reflect the blue ofsky
And my fingers curl around your own
Solitudebroken in your eyes
But welcomed companionship
Nothis wolf has no pack
Her howls are for the woodsalone
But all you have to do is ask
And I will considerthe trees that bend
And try to find the harmony inour songs
Can we walk the beachtogether
Leaving tracks for the weather to wear
While I canshow you my purse to fill
Of glittering gem androck so rare
Raw and simple they come from thisearth
Polished by the beating raptures of waves
And picked by myhand for some special day
Daisy chains and yarrowcirclets adorn my hair
Dancing again nearSuperior shore
Logs milled and sawn fallen by stormylashes
Raging to give us ad strip me of my innerbark
Leaving me my willow wands
Long and sinewy they arethe goddess’s arm
Art in nature’sform
Sandpipers of joy why do you walk away from me
Your tinyprints trailing to the distant horizon
When a lonewolf ventures into new territory
Seeking the newsmells and markers of a way back home
Campfire nightswith a starry array
I walk still on this silentprey
Let me share the life of longing in my greenfireeyes
And by the hills we can watch the sunset
Mirrorson the lake comes the final burst of day
Piercingthe clouds in the dimness
From my purse I pourthe stones
Hold out your hand and you shall havemy quarry
The trumpet prize of glory
While youtake these and cup them near
Find my won hands andreassure
My grasp climbing the pine tree bark to the farthestbranch
If you follow my lead I will show you
A placewhere the moon rises over waterfall
Extended in herpale face on to the glistening lake
Pineconesswinging from the limbs
Dangling like my legs on brazenfall
Leaping to my joy my sorrowful flight
Owl hoots onthis night
Deep in woods the greenman of thehart
Sire staged and horned with the brass torc of ancientclan
Careful place to step for any man
Here white trilliumand lilies bloom
Cornflower woman of this landseeks peace and respite from men’s hands
Under thegreat hemlock trees where value of mine doesplace
Peregrine journey to find my rocky mountain scrape
On mywatchtower I wail
Watching the slithering snake of riverwind into green hillside
And below this fire perchwalks the doe who fauns
The bear lumbering near thedew drop stands
Secret lynx hidden in your domainstalking with your endangered pelt
The moose who wolfcraves to take down like in the old days goes no fartherbut to pass into the deer lands
My place beside aendless spance of water meeting sky
Was sacred by theforest where unicorns still hide
Recovered in a yearof favorable winds
My tracks led you deep intothe shades of tree covered life
Did you follow didI deceive
Where shall I find you again as I havelost the scent
But yet I still wait and hot tocatch you in the preserve
My memory holds you herein this virginal land
Far away from my untouchedhands
Where we can pluck a million stars together and putthem back in the purse
So we can spill themtogether uncursed
Broken by the seal of leaping heartsand healed wounds
Mended by the forest my memoryholds.
