Heather Alexander Dream Rider
Living is dancing, dream riding, fire daughter
A ring of bright water, a glint in the sun
Learning is chancing, so if you are caring
Can’t fault in be daring, not fearful to run
Growing is changing, stagnation is dying,
So, why not be trying a path that is new?
Set your mind ranging upon the tree’s branches
If you take no chances, your dreams can’t come true
[Chorus]:
Living is dancing, and you are the dancer
Within you in the answer if only you’ll dare
Tame lightning’s lances far over your mountain
Drink at wisdom’s fountain, though rider in air
Living is learning of star shine and wonder
Of dew drops and thunder, the world and yourself
Inside be tuning, and outward be growing
You won’t find this knowing in books on a shelf
Learning is doing, not watching and waiting
Or sadly debating what you fear to try
Seek your renewing, your own path be making
The magic’s for taking, so take it and fly
[Chorus]
Yours is the power and yours is the duty
From grimness bring beauty and joy out of pain
Let yourself flower by fire enfolded
By discipline molded through trials you gain
Teachings, not giving, you learn by the striving
To fail, yet surviving to once again try
Striving is living, the struggle renewing
‘Til by your own doing you’re conquered the sky
[Chorus]
