A Man Who Feels the Song of Life

On a moonlit night he plays his song
   throughout a quiet sleeping wood.
The music speaks of lives now gone
   better than his stories ever could.
Memories fade and the seasons change
   the years have tumbled by.
But although the river may alter its course
   its waters will never run dry.
