Pathways

Onward as I mend my way Looking towards the sheep go astray Then in a flash appears that moment Which I did many a time didst contemplate Now lies it's reflection amidst shadows For my heart did yearn but once. Calling in the distance is the horn to which these kids thus borne Hading their way through glorious glen Merry would have been my soul Which now lurks amidst life and confusion For my heart did yearn but once. Gathering dust as the flock leads Looking for more fern to feed For the sky darkens with smoke many a home didst light up As the sun set making way for dark For my heart did yearn but once The path is long and tiresome carrying my burden is wearisome Looking ahead even in the night With careful steps I glide Under the stars that sparkle As my heart did yearn but once.
