Great Lake Swimmers New Light
The sound of breathing, the silence intense The hearts are pounding, endlessly here The wind tumbling steadily, traded between us It becomes a wild and powerful strength
New Light
You took my wind, and gave me your wind It passes between us, invisible, pure The patterns in motion, the birds in their forms The horizon is only a point on the map
New Light
The holy head dressed with feathers, and howling The mother protects the young, and the worn The clouded dusk drops, the burning sun cracks The natural world reinvents itself And turning the wheel, the iron fears crying The walls moan and sing as they shift in the wind The night is a prayer that beckons the dawn Hopeful and patient for new light to come
New Light
