KINGFISHER GIRL (The Song of“Wish You Were Here”)

This is the song of
a kingfisher girl
Who sits by the side of
The River of Life
And flies in her mind
over seven sad seas
Fiery her wings as so brightly
she sings
Songs that are sweetened
by one million moons
Songs that are mystic,
exotically tuned
―songs that I sing to you
Sing, sing, sing out this song
Let it be heard
all over the world
Cry, cry, cry silver tears
This is the song of
"Wish You Were Here"

This is the song of
a kingfisher girl
Who dives in the waters of
love's diamond depths
Who catches the fish
that swim all through her blood
Sensually shining to taste
on the tongue
The taste of dark honey
that drips from the sun
The taste on these lips
where all spices are spun
―ever, eternally... on...
Sing, sing, sing out this song
Let it be heard
all over the world
Cry, cry, cry silver tears
This is the song of
"Wish You Were Here"
Fly, fly, coated in fire
Kingfisher girl,
lone star of the sky
Dive, dive, dive into time
A moment alive
where we'll never die

Cry, cry, cry silver tears
This is the song of
"Wish You Were Here"
