about

This song was written under the total lunar eclipse of a blood moon. I sat on a blanket in the grass with my harp, and this spilled out into the frigid night. Magic, you might say...

lyrics

Eclipsing the blood moon:
High autumnal fixed--
Eclipsed by the blood moon,
I succumb to this
Waxing and waning,
The harmony perfected.
Though perfection here too
Waxes and wanes,
Fragile like the snowflakes
Teased by waning autumn days.
The waxing of winter;
The deepening cold--
It will not eclipse that
Which to the moon I have told.

Inhale; exhale; live, breathe, listen.
Rites led by starlights
That glimmer and glisten,
Yet paled by the wonder
And beauty abound,
Anchored by the moon
Though toes touch the ground.

The water calls
Like wisdom yore--
Jars and crystals;
Blankets on fjord.
Cold and wise and bleeding strong:
The push and pull
That reveals the song.

Inhale; exhale; live, breathe, listen.
Rites led by starlights
That glimmer and glisten,
Yet paled by the wonder
And beauty abound,
Anchored by the moon
Though toes touch the ground.
