Old Ones of Tomorrow

A Garret Poet

Old Ones of Tomorrow
Form: Blues Stanza

Tonight we speak in arcane tongue
Tonight we speak in arcane tongue
Until all the soul’s songs have been sung
Every syllable at one with the stones
Every syllable at one with the stones
As we feel the magic in our bones
The old ones, like warriors guide us through
The old ones, like warriors guide us through
For theirs is the magic we can do
The words of their memories speak
The words of their memories speak
And in the old ones we shall not be week
The untrodden paths made by their feet
The untrodden paths made by their feet
Vibrate again with an ancient beat
In nature’s way of the birds and bees
In nature’s way of the birds and bees
Through wilderness and through trees
We sing the songs of joy and sorrow
We sing the songs of joy and sorrow
For we are the old ones of tomorrow
Tonight we speak in arcane tongue
Tonight we speak in arcane tongue
Until all the soul’s songs have been sung

I am a freelance writer and poet and started writing after raising my two boys as a way of discovering just who Jez is. That is still very much an ongoing project but the journey so far has introduced me to many wonderful friends and fellow writers through an ever-growing love of poetry.
