Incense on the wing
Over the land of Ire it flies
When summer’s lost its green.
I saw it once with my own eyes…
The flock of geese, I mean.
The wild geese.
Just past All Hallows Eve it was
When fire filled the sky
And through the branches bare, I swear
The trees released a sigh

Now for her fire the land of Ire
Is known both near and far.
And in the name of Notre Dame
She fights a world war.
There is a world war.
Azure sky bows in the East
To watch the West be bled.
Oh weary sun, your job is done
The source of light is red…
The source of light is read.
Citizens of planet Earth
No longer bound to Rome,
Indigenous by second birth,
The wild goose calls you home.
The spirit says, “Come home”.

Whispering words that
by Tammy A
I walked across the hall Into my room
I closed the door behind me
And entered into my world
You sat at the corner Waiting for
