Puppet On A Silver String


The frosted air waltzes to the sound of night 
There among the embers of winter is a light 
That sparkles in the pitching darkly canvass
This night I see the magic, of his Holy Grace      

The beauty of a winter scene, the interlude  
The journey of stars that glitter in fortitude 
The mesmerizing moon the song of a loon 
Lakes of ebony citadels of gold by a dune   

Burnt sierra sunsets over a fading orange sky
The hills are asleep as the crow begins to fly 
The moon is a lovely shade of autumn wheat
While the willows in the wind begin to weep  
   
The master holds a tangled violin under his chin 
Softly I dance before him, in my fading crinoline
Like a puppet on a silver string he lifts my face 
As I dance for him, I am filled with only grace

There among the embers of a winter dream 
My body finds a temple, in the night’s sheen 
I can see every line and contour of a Holy Face
This night I see the magic, of his Holy Grace 

Lyrics written on the moon 
On a night such as this
His Mystic Rose xxx

    Love the message, images, and the rhythmic wordplay. I know he's smiling at you for being a faithful servant. Keep being a strong witness, I admire that about you!
