Millstatt

The wind like my mother, she called my name

A whisper heard over the cars, the cries, and the clamor

The lake like a mirror, it looked back at me

Reflecting no fear, no fault, finding not one a-single scratch

The mounts like my father, they guarded the ground

A shadow cast over the town, it's streets, and it's people

The trees, they swayed in the wind that spoke

I joined in their dance to the song that echoed off the mountainside

This must be where God comes to rest

Must be where God comes to rest

The calm like my brother, it kept by my side

A feeling that nothing at all could rid me of meaning

I stood like a child with worry in hand

I threw it into the lake

I felt the weight lift off my back with every bounce across the water

And then it sank

I was a feather

The Sun like my sister, so gentle, so bright

I was the day waking up, adjusting to the morning light

The fog like a blanket surrounded me whole

The church bells joined in the choir and we all sang: Come, oh peace, be nigh

Come, oh peace, be nigh

This must be where God comes to rest

Must be where God comes to rest
