Kyrielle Two
Dry caverns yearn for fountainheads
Splashing whirlpools filling streambeds
Dusty grottos of emptiness
Laugh with wellspring’s joyful excess.
Parched hollows in transformation,
In arid anticipation,
Longing aqua waves sweet press
Laugh with wellspring’s joyful excess.
Deep reservoir of creation
Hears the flowing invitation
Swirling clear tides swell in access
Laugh with wellspring’s joyful excess.
Dulcet fountains gush in rebirth
Sweet waters burst out from dry earth
Living waters with grace to bless
Laugh with wellspring’s joyful excess

Kyrielle
Dry caverns yearn for fountainheads
Splashing whirlpools filling streambeds;
Dusty grottos of emptiness
Beg for wellspring’s joyful excess.
Parched hollows anticipation
Waits for waves of transformation;
Longs for aqua waves elation
Surging tides lyric vibrations.
Deep reservoir of creation
Hears the flowing invitation;
Swirling clear tides swell in ascent
Wellsprings chant in a new advent.
Dulcet fountains gush in rebirth
Sweet waters burst out from dry earth;
Aquifers of waters that live
Bathes the soul with grace that forgives.
