Night Walk Dreamers

Contributed by Steeleyes on Monday, 2nd December 2002 @ 11:00:00 PM in AEST
Topic: oops

we shut the door on the last way home
just we three walking in the icy night

looking right I see
looming hills through the rain, darker dark on dark
to the left sodden trees and grassy slope
our home for the night

I could have wished for a female form to cuddle warm
as I rolled in soaking sheets, cold wind-swept and wet

and above, wild trees, ragged brooms, scraped the sky,
whipped to a frenzy by the scything wind

all this in a land of castles squat, dripping grey,
moss-green walls,
welcome home to a million tiny creatures,
shell-covered and shiny dry

so no end to this rain deluging us tattered souls
our misbegotten quest a joke flung in pale faces
we turn tail

all up and off back down the black shiny road
by way of two wild fishermen singing crazy free
yellow headlamp flickering the pines alive

back to the light, to warmth and shelter,
to Morroch, ancestors and velvet

to tea cups and trinkets rattling under glass,
carpets, armchairs and sweet feelings,
clothes drying steaming hot by the fire,
something cooking and music playing
faces glowing in the electric air
three survivors of the storm
