in whispering voices, the bones, they talk
through the rolling curving lines of the land
they lead me gently, unconscious I walk
on the moss covered stones I rest my hand
to feel their quiet presence lingering there
through the rolling curving lines of the land
in the haunt of the fox, home of the hare,
where all is as it was before, I come
to feel their quiet presence lingering there
guided by moonlight, stones, spiral and sun
I walk the path of the ancestors bones
where all is as it was before, I come
to the place of the barrow, long dark homes,
with lasting respect for all that they knew
I walk the path of the ancestors bones
the stones they placed and the ancient ditches
where the blackthorn at dawn sparkles with dew
inform me still of their deepest wishes
with lasting respect for all that they knew
