    The Raven

    The raven speaks

    In many tongues,

    I heard them all

    When I was young.

    The raven spoke

    Of you and me,

    He said "hold on

    Someday you'll see."

    Through ravens eyes

    I'd see you there,

    I had no name

    And didn't know where.

    Through ravens eyes

    I'm up so high,

    And you below

    Glaring towards the sky.

    The raven spoke

    Of words so true,

    Saying, you are of him

    He is of you.

    So when we meet

    Be true to heart,

    And in a while

    We'll never part.

    The raven will speak

    The raven will see,

    It's all about love

    It's about you and me.

    Native storytelling is alive and well, as witnessed through the eyes of the wise raven you've written so well about. Bear

    TY it's one I just love. Shadow

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.
