First Light

First light caresses the sky

I am the creator

"In biting flame and burning ice

it shall begin again"

Whisper to me the name of the wind

be one with me

transcend the self

and become the whole

Let us hear the song of the ocean

and feel the weight of the sky

The heart opens as the eye closes

Pluck out and relinquish the 'I'

Ancestral warnings

etched into our souls

steer us from the darkness

that lies within us all

The serpent slumbers only lightly

Though he with one eye keeps vigil

Upon his throne once more

As it was, so it shall be again

The serpent slumbers only lightly

Though he with one eye keeps vigil

Upon his throne once more

As it was, so it is again
