Midwinter - Gary Stadler, Wendy Rule

Hear us now

We are the stars

Feel us now

We are the sea

Hear us now

As the magic flows

We are the wind

That kisses the trees

We come

Softly through the night

As evening falls behind us

Our footsteps leave

No mark upon the snow

Let your spirit go

It will find us

We come adorned

In spiderweb and dew

Through woodland to the meadow

We come

Luminous and bright

Dancing with the light and the shadow

The winter moon

Is calling us to play

A sacred light to guide us

The wild music

Leads us in a trance

Spinning to the dances inside us

The air is cold

And echoes with the sound

Of laughter rising higher

With drums and bells

We sing into the night

Dancing in the light of the fire

We weave a music

Curiously pure

A crystal song suspended

We fly on wings

Diaphanous as light

Dancing til the long night is ended

We come

Ancient as the moon

As new as every season

We come as fire, as icicle as leaf

Suspend your disbelief and your reason

Feel us now surrounding you

We are the wind that kisses the trees

Feel us now inside of you

A faerie heart that’s guiding you home
