The Sublime Cavalcade of a Holy Ghost ( Part Two )

You have called with the wolf in the winter planted trees that you will never see grow and we have been a sunburst from clouds that shone with the watered light of rainbows Though you have cried within the breathlessness of splendour we have walked in the canyons of fear and found in this pursuit of forever the eternal witness is all of us here We have carried the harvest of our labour all the fervour, the desires and the needs and placed their testament forever beneath the feet of the free And I have slept with you in the torpor that same proof to life’s drudgery This is no more than a tale I’ve been living and its no more than the book of your lives oh my loves oh my loves with you in this cavalcade of the sublime I am there all of the time carrying this banner of the core of our hearts to the fields of deliverance where hope never lost sight of the parts that we play in this human pageant leading the way Holy Ghost in a sublime cavalcade We have touched on the essence of being and felt tremulous winds of belief seen in the seed of love that had grown where the face of innocence had been sown You have grasped for a moment the conception and held the angel of truth by his toe the finger of God is creation and the turbulent perfection of chaos perceived Though we may lose our way in rendition it is with us here all of the time oh my loves oh my loves it is with us here all of the time in this cavalcade of the sublime These are merely the words of our searching to voice this feeling of meaning behind all the things to which we aspire it is the power of our conquest and failure to carry the banner of our hearts to the fields This is recognition of the role of our valour blessed with the heavenly choir oh my loves oh my loves I am with you there all of the time in this cavalcade of the sublime Marching and dawdling holding hand in hand lost and redeemed an orchestral vocation of our human band as we traverse the annals of time in the company of the sublime
