Deep within the chasm,
Lives the man without a name -
He’s come to represent
The secrets hidden in -
...
The breath of dead man winter’s
Swirling vapors of the frozen -
Forging dendrites in the splinters,
Bringing rains, the rivers run.
...
When I see the world, for you
When you became the world to me
A rainbow arched beyond the storms
To green pastures of destiny
...
Stand silent, and you’ll sense the ghosts
Of Fountains Abbey
White Monks in raw wool habits
Wafting through your soul
...
Sing we for the finest times,
For memories of tree-lined hills –
O’er fields lay strewn of flowers gold,
Ensconced, we are composed.
...
