Regulus, where have you gone?
Since summer's moon has fall'n
I see you not at all
The wandering sun must meet with you
Until the dawn is breaking in the fall.
Last time that I saw you it was in a westward gaze,
Through airplane lights and haze
I thought I heard you speak towards me
Or did you just repeat what I might say?
Lately I've been listening for a song we both could hold
Out in the widening world
Through senses' portals grace and truth
Come tumbling stumbling towards our soul.
Will you go towards the light?
I know not of the how nor when
If you and I should meet again
But Regulus, my dear old friend,
I"ll wait for you across the starry night.
Lovers two had sat beneath a vernal linden tree
The blossoms full of bees
They all have dropped their petals now,
The leaves are rustling in the autumn breeze.
Meteors and minerals and quests to distant lands
The wanderers' commands
May lead us far await from here
As time will scribe his circles in the sand.
Will you go towards the light?

Strength of Compassion, draw ye near,
The earth is parched for want of tears;
Salt of the Ocean swells inside,
Mine eyes are open to the tides.
Eli, Eli; Eli, Eli, lama sabachtani?
Wings of a heartbeat gather dew
The sweat of Grace 'twixt me and you;
Deer of the dawn, your secret share
Lest angels waste for want of prayers.
Eli, Eli; Eli, Eli, lama sabachtani?

Thousands of miles have I traveled
Millions of footsteps I've tread
Coming or going I'm always arriving
Rest your sweet hands on my head
Whether I' waking or dreaming or striving
Rest your sweet hands on my head.
Some people come from the mountain,
Some people come from the lake,
Some come in clouds or in breezes in bonnets
Meeting is not a mistake
Some come in flames like the tails on a comet,
Meeting is not a mistake.
Ave! Angel Skin!
Weave your wings around my being, touch me once again!
Sometimes a light glows behind me
Sometimes a star shines above
Sometimes a whisper of worlds wraps around me
Warming me through with your love
Blind in the darkness a soft and a sharpness
Warming me through with your love.
Thousands of years have you known me
Millions of ways have I roamed,
If you are the Sun then may I be your daughter,
Hold me and I'll be at home,
If I am the dust then may you be the waters,
Hold me and I'll be at home.
If you are the moon then may I be your daughter...

I bear my sorrows in the sinking sun.
I place all my cares in its radiant wisdom.
Transformed in light, purified in love,
May the return as helping thoughts,
As strength for joyful deeds of sacrifice.
