Whisper to me softly, O' brother wind From whence place dost thou blow? Help determine mine ultimate direction And guide my journey with the longbow
Caress my face with thy gentle pass As I stalk, undetected, in search of my foe Hide me, I beseech thee...reveal not my transgress And guide my journey with the longbow
Bear not my presence upon your current And make known the secret below To the sensitive nose of the forest dweller And guide my journey with the longbow
But alas..., it is not to be, O' brother wind For my words thou tossed to and fro This way, then that way and this way again Unknown, unseen, your ever changing flow Thus ending, but, ending only this day My journey with the longbow......TW
