    Twas the lonley night of mid summers june
    (excluded from all prayer of thought I was)
    I dreamt of a lonley woman beside the bay
    Fixated upon this solid rock she lay.
    She gazed to the heavens all thoughts elude
    (I wondering why so sad she was)
    And bled her tears into the sea.
    While I watched in awe at her solidarity.
    She basked in the shadow of the silent moon
    (as I slowly approached her in billsfull still)
    And she spoke in a crisp chilling tounge
    As she asked my presence in question.
    Said I to her where do we dwell
    (as spoken word cut through the air)
    And she looked at me her sadness well'd
    As tears began to fall from the sky.

    I quenched my action and turned to her.
    (now broken and tearfull the maiden was)
    And the sun it rose to welcome me.
    But shone my sin to envy my seed.
    As light it grazed her crystal skin
    (And blinded me of the valley pure.)
    Up rose the maiden in yellow night
    And turned to walk, enamelled; bedight.

    "I looked above
    The clouds that night
    And gazed with startled eye
    At the image portrayed
    From my holy sight
    That stretched across the sky.
    The shaded nimbus
    Of the borealis
    Struck fear to my dire mistaken heart
    And the comets shone
    And peirced the smoke
    To fall in parallel to my maidens side
    But me I fell
    To my knees abash
    In loves cradle I felt alone
    And realised my revelation
    That turned the maiden into stone"

    I woke in sweat and drowned in tears
    ( That fell from my own eyes and pores that night)
    And realised that my darkest fears
    Were told in this vision of earthly sight.
    But I moved out to the valleys edge
    (And stretched my muscles to flex my sight)
    And saw the maiden so full and bright
    Reflecting the suns nuturing light
    I blinked and blinked in disbelief
    (As my legs began to rise from ground)
    And engulfed by fear my heart was rank
    And my ears were deafend by the sound
    Of her voice that broke the silenced stream
    (as I slowly approached her in blissfull still)
    And reached to touch this anomaly
    And reached but reached for eternity.
