i have seen
fields of green
dark skies glowing
rivers flowing
and i have felt their yearning
and i have known their secret
nature's pain
falls like rain
feel her beauty
know her duty
mirror me
make me see
lead my longing
to belonging
i will remember skies i once knew
and in the fullness all things anew
if silence is a word
if heaven is a voice i once heard
tie me a ribbon of golden thread
if summer is a place
of twilight stars and shimmering haze
tie me a ribbon of golden thread
if sadness is a key
to lullabies the wind sang for me
tie me a ribbon of golden thread"
