A faery's song of the beauty of midsummer.
Unsariel, Unsariel, whither dost thou fly?
Beyond the moon, above the stars
A sparkle in God's eye
The nightingales of yonder dale
Have flown on shadow wings to thee
And here at last, where all shadows fade
Thou shall dance at last with me
On Summer's Eve when night is nigh
And twin lights lighten up the sky
Around the trees of mountain glen
And here the dancing shall begin
Two faery maidens, you and I
***
The winds that've swept the noble bows
For endless ages past
Shall swirl about, our song uplift
In echoes that shall ever last
Time shall halt and life shall change
And patterns more intricate still devise
Creaters, spirits, worlds estranged
Shall laugh beneath colliding skies
Flame shall light the paths awinding
Earth shall blossom, ways unbinding
Spring and brook that run to sea
Shall sing their canticle as we
Take in thought to heaven's heights
The secrets of the winds in finding
***
Lissome, lilting, lithe of limb
Spinning twirling, shadow whirling
Two maidens dancing in the woods
Breezes twining in our hair
All creation before us laid
Fay and fey and faery fair.
