O one that holds the strands of fate Weave this worthless soul a tale From your fragile winding strings stronger than armies of noble kings
Don’t let this wandering wretch be lost Through your halls of ancient tales With the ways of your silky words Let my deeds be louder than storms and gales
Let my name be heard when the songbird sings By your cold and placid grace To your strands I hold and cling Until you lift me from my lowly place And be with you ever…. coiling.
A voice rises from the low places— not to command, but to be remembered in the story spun by hands unseen.
