The Soul Of A Century/A seeress
A SEERESS
(Fragments)
Whenever your eye fills with a bitter tear,
Whenever hardships fall upon your days
’tis then I bring my branch of hope and cheer
’tis then I raise a prophetic voice that says:
“Do not weigh lightly the meaning of my words,
In the heavens above my prophecy finds its birth,
Unflinching laws embrace all men and worlds,
And all must pay their debts upon this earth.
A river seeks its end in the distant rolling sea,
The flames leap high, the heavens to embrace,
Whatever the earth creates by earth destroyed shall be,
But nought shall go to waste or lose its finite place.
Firm and assured is destiny’s each tread
And what shall be/ shall come as time moves on,
And what one day may bury, in its stead
Another day will bring to life anon.
