Six months in the dark, six in the light
Three months to feel the spark
Three to see the night
One that's never ending, one that never leaves
Another is a beginning
When an old one wipes its sleeve
And sheds a skin
Lights a match
Turns the light on within
The feelings snatch
Their times to breath
A new light entering
Hope it knocks upon closed doors
A willing them to open
And a miser may not let them in
But the child who has never spoken
Speaks yes come in, and feel the warmth
The glorious blazing hearth
and all health and gin
Bring the family in
And have great cheer beside them
And outside winds turn on the world
Deep mercurial forces move the tides
Moons creak
and shake
And mother nature gives birth
To Spring like a virgin bride
And suddenly the child is born
Out pops a little lamb
And all the neighbours overheard
The words I am, I am, I am
And into the corruption, this amalgamate of man
The human genius for destruction
Flitters like a moth to the flame
As moon beams shatter ice structures
And scriptures go down the pan
And icebergs clash upon ocean swells
In darkness over icy hells
But nothing but the rising humpback
Sings his song on and on
And breaks through the ice sheets
To breathe fresh air anon
And on and on the turning goes
No it never ends
Until we are borne dizzy on our toes
And collapse into the arms of a friend
Who kisses our cheek and mops our brow
And sets us off dancing again
So turn, turn, turn like the ships prow
Upon the rolling wild ocean
