Moons And Cattails - Linda Perhacs

Moons and cattails

Sun and sandstone

Moons and cattails

Sun and sandstone

I knew them way back

I knew them way back

Come along, past the cave

Past the howl, come along

Back to damp nights

To the heavy sleep of time

The naked blackness

Of basalt

Come along, past the paw

Past the fin, come along

I knew them, way back

I knew them, way back

Come along

Back to wet stone

To the soaking taste of leaf

The cooling memory

Of shadows

Come along, past the cave

Past the howl, come along
