august morning recalled

[fledgist]

 this is the day when we may bless the sun

no cloud can daunt us once we're through the night

for on this morning all our good is won

 

the long dark course of horror has been run

so now we have true clarity of sight

this is the day when we may bless the sun

 

not as our whip for that time is now done

but as an honest beneficent light

for on this morning all our good is won

 

we must make real the tales that once we spun

around the fire to keep our spirits bright

this is the day when we may bless the sun

 

for now there is no fear of lance or gun

since we may dance in our masters' despite

for on this morning all our good is won

 

service to past and future we won't shun

nor ever drop from memory the long fight

this is the day when we may bless the sun

for on this morning all our good is won

Nice.

(It's being that kind of a day here, too.)

Thanks!
