Shooting off into the Stars

The stone walls begin to crack

The flowers finally found through

The sun and rain can celebrate

An ancient rousing tune

 

The tiny warriors give just a glance

From far far below

Before they continue in their work

In halls of golden sand aglow

 

The old men and the young

They hum an aching tune

It tumbles past their lips

Till swill forgotten

The tavern would swoon

 

I join into their dance

A firey preamble to this

When we sit around the fire

Sharing pipes of peace and bliss

 

Shooting off into the stars

Waiting on the moon

Listening to the ones

Who say they'll meet me soon

 

The day the music dies

I'll be a beggar from then

My shoes and coat worn and torn

From life with no end

 

But here it comes again

It's in the sun and rain

The walls that break

The flowers that arise

The ones who watch

The ones who join

The ones who go staring off
