Lyrics of the Wind

The fading sun bleeds it last pink shards through pastel ice of twilight 
Shimmering gods of ancient times emerge from their slumber 
The faint smell of lilacs suffused with the musk of a late spring lake 
Fireflies sanguinely dance within the windswept chattering reeds 
With the right kind of ears, you can faintly hear the whispers of your soul
