Lyrics
CEDAR AND THE EAGLE
Cedar is a tree my dear
Serving eagles in the air
Boughs dust to brush the fear
Pluming bright blue suns that sear
Eagle clutched to tear the top
Flew too fast the boughs he dropped
From the buds lush vines cropped up
Beside great water staves burn up
Will knotted arms or greens bear fruit
Or shall they wither and not take root.
Eagle flies with wingspan great
Sits atop to heal and take
An incense carries prayers to sky
Cedar shakes makes shelters dry
In the riddle lies the truth
It’s up to you to find the muse
Your gifts are great and vast to see
You only ask for space to be
