"Ile de Skye" Soliloque~Chansons de l'eau, chant d'etoiles

 Isle of Skye
~
Soliloquy
~
Songs of water, song of stars
~

Sometimes we are brought
by some mercurial drift
of currents
moving northward
within the grieving water
within a deepening dream

The northern isles
ancient ones, mages
 journey on paths of light
star guided - between worlds
a Chironic effort
to drift north
the distant mystery
flowing through their veins
as maps of heaven
flow endless inside the sea

The northern isles
sing to them
a memory
across dark waters
beyond an enchantresses reach
the old ones gather
Swirl of Odin, Circe's scent
hoof of Pan

The names of everything
language of songs~ of earth, of sea
the names of everything
bloom of muse
incanting skybound
drawing close the mystery
soliloquy of stars
emptying
into
 oceans of light
becoming
the ancient word
