Reach out! You pure flesh, of rock and stone, Earthly creature sighing of earthly delights, Of things unknown to us, from just beyond the horizon, from just beyond the grasp of the sun's gentle rays
And come to us now, rest your drowsy head Tell us of your travels, your sprites, your wonders Tell us of those dark spots in our mouths and things buried in our teeth, of river-veins and soft mountain curvature Tell us what lies beyond the green seas and deep purple skies
Drink up, from that purity and sweet ignorance that you have grown For our weary hearts yearn for your tales, and to see what we can't
Sleep tonight, in sapphire shadows under the full moon, by the lilacs and moon-moths Rest your feet on moss pillows and dream of tomorrow, forever For you are ours
