I Love This Poem

~Dachaigh~
(Scottish Gaelic meaning: Home) 🎻

Ancestors whisper sweet songs on the wind
Calling us home
Calling us home
Awakening wisdom and magic within
Wilfully calling us home

Sunlight pours over the heart of woods
Calling us home
Calling us home
Lighting a pathway that leads to our roots
Hastily calling us home

Pockets and pebbles and dreams turn to dust
Calling us home
Calling us home
Dreams of a child that now wither and rust
Urgently calling us home

Stars twinkle wishes released to the night
Calling us home
Calling us home
Hope yields a promise within candlelight
Speedily calling us home

Under the moonlight, a wolf shares his woes
Calling us home
Calling us home
Beckoning mankind to unfurl his toes
Hurriedly calling us home

Stories unfold by the light of a hearth
Calling us home
Calling us home
Yearnings are met in the arms of the earth
Calling us lovingly home
