*The Kelpie's Song*


*The Kelpie's Song*

Remember me,
you will remember me


between the damp moss and the water lilies
swimming gently, dreaming in their quiet slumber
the white flowers, they deceived your heart
as you held it between your hands
carrying your tears to the pearl stallion
at the edge, where you sang your song


Remember that,
remember my emerald eyes
gazing at you from below
and the thin sheet of water that separated us


between the damp moss and the water lilies
drifting away, treacherous in my ancient game
your pale face, betraying your soft soul
as you held it between your hands
carrying your tears to the pearl stallion
at the edge, where you sang your song


Remember me,
you will remember me
