The Glade of Rest

Take me to the willows
Pull my heart away
Rest my spirit in the grass
May I ever stay
Beneath the sky so cloudless
I rest here at the glade
From my depth, I breath in
Peace beneath the shade
Battles filled with glory 
Hold less than they take
Wash the feet so tattered
Bathe me as I wake
