02 - solskifte - vampire deer
April 8, 2020 5:12 PM
in the northern part of the world, the sun takes a while to be given a bigger share of our sky - which also can stand for a metaphor for a lot of things these days
circle round the river, make a place for sun
hold your hand out to the field when day is done
night chills still in spring, night looks back
days still hint at weakness, the trees stay black
this is our portion even through the equinox
solskifte is slow to undo locks
these are the days when we are unsure where to go
solskifte gives up the sun so slow
circle round the ashes that fall from the sky
heartless and invisible to our careless eye
circle round the hearts that drive the grasping hand
say a prayer for those who are married to this land
this is our portion even through the equinox
solskifte is slow to undo locks
these are the days when we are unsure where to go
solskifte gives up the sun so slow
circle round the river, make a place for sun
hold your hand out to the field when day is done
night chills still in spring, night looks back
days still hint at weakness, the trees stay black
this is our portion even through the equinox
solskifte is slow to undo locks
these are the days when we are unsure where to go
solskifte gives up the sun so slow
circle round the ashes that fall from the sky
heartless and invisible to our careless eye
circle round the hearts that drive the grasping hand
say a prayer for those who are married to this land
this is our portion even through the equinox
solskifte is slow to undo locks
these are the days when we are unsure where to go
solskifte gives up the sun so slow
