When The Iron Curtain Came Down

Surrounded by sirens Of people hiding their eyes From a soft heart With the shell like diamonds Into a familiar world of one To soar. A baby Raven sings perched As the Crows flock overhead South. No one hears his language The skies fog lacks depth today. We see the Raven as He is. Will you come with me To lavender fields where I can run? I shall hold your hand As we dance and allow the earth To envelope us as we lie Beside the endless stream. We shall drink from the mist Welcoming the winds caress upon our truth, Reminding us of peace Amidst the barriers that keep us apart. Suddenly we are aware Of the possibilities and light, As we had not known. Fear of the rain eludes you A storm appears above in the grey. Our hands touch, our eyes meet. Simplicity speaks As a butterfly flutters over you Merely to wink. Heaven smiles As the wall comes crashing down And I see.
