The Crow Chief

The Crow Chief 

 Sit a while to bask in the ambiance of a moment of song
 We marked are papers with what went wrong
 Can't we all see and just get along
 Silence beckons the plough yet asunder
 Is it any wonder we have to much time on our hands
 The crow chief emmerges from the brisk of the day
 A step forward to bow the knee to pray
 He looks in hindsight at the ever glass nestled around his chest
 Longing for a real world in need of it's untimely rest
 He dances in a ring of fire yet throws off the challenge with a shrug
 Out of hallow circumstance to take part in the dance
 Mark the man willing to explore hence the opened door lest I implore
 Shapes forms out of the sky the following of a distant passerby
 He plants a seed of kindness t the heavenly god of grace
 Slowly he is warned of his intrusion into the outer space
 In time his seed grows to it's modest fruition delivered above
 To summon the outside of nature's beckoning call
 Then to heed a promise once spoken in the dark now brought to light
 We make plans then break plans will it end it all depends
 A beacon of hope to a world that can't cope
 They bask in the debris of being social wandering wizard's
 Shelter lies dormant amdst it's beckoning plough
 A challenge to be set free is just a question of time
 The crow chief lives to wait until the end of the line
