THE PIPER

(T. Beechey)



When,all around,there is the sound of peaceful solitude

And the only images to be found exist within the mood

That's the chance to accept the dance even if you can't

You'll find the step where it's kept within the piper's chant



When,all within,the ceaseless din of the world fades away

Allowing for just a moment to breathe the scent of day

That is when you begin again to seek what left so soon

And,when you do,only then will you hear the piper's tune



The whispers in the breezes which appeases and consumes

The ripples in the water,color splashes in the plumes

Blending with the mending of a heart denied in love

This is only but a sampling of all the piper's of



Upon the crests of windfalls,there's no walls to divide

Expressions emerge quickly when there's not a need to hide

From the majestic rise of mountains to fountains spraying mist

This is where,in the fragrant air,you shall feel the piper's kiss



When,all throughout,the cloak of doubt is lifted to reveal

Just what life is all about in all you think and feel

That's a sign to drink the wine,the sweet nectar which abounds

In the presence of the lilting tones amidst the piper's sounds



When all above,below,beyond,there's a bond between the land

And man as he embraces life with a strong and steady hand

That's the time to begin the climb from where you've been so long

And follow the echoes of the chime which exist in the piper's song
