Ancient Echoes

Sun on the horizon is setting

Deep in the trees howl the wolves

Far off the ravens are calling

Night fall has come to the earth

Fire wood crackles with pleasure

Shadows dance round on the trees

While the Flames lick the night like a whisper

Smoke journeys off on the breeze.

We sit by the light of the fire

Images run in our heads

Telling the ancestral stories

Singing the songs of our kin

Long in the past sat brave warriors

Much as we do here today

They were telling the same ancient stories

Singing of each other’s praise

Memories of past generations

Visions lie deep in our soul

Ancient Traditions we honor

Our Forefathers linage we hold

Echoes Through time a reflection

Ancestral blood in our veins

And it Burns like an undying ember

Yearns to be fanned into flames.
