Where My Fathers Abide

Wind whispered and chilled my soul
Said it was time to go
Over the great divide
Back to where my fathers abide

Where souls wait for those who come
To where time begun
Wind whispered and we fly
Back to where my fathers abide

To the land of wind and shadow
Wind whispered it was time to go
With the souls of times gone by
Back to where my fathers abide

G'day Timothy … generational roots can be so entrenched that wherever we are, can feel the spirits calling us home - thanks Timothy - Lindsay
