before the dream was new

Before the dream was new
Spring came with song of wing
Rain, hail, wind, blossom 
All come before the dream was new

Water fell with silent tred
Green rising up from the scented ground
Moist breath of ages coming as a sweet warm kiss
All this and more came... Before this dream

Dreams of sitting atop the highest hill
Banner waving above the battle cries 
Cheers of Kinsman soaring to the stars!
Dreams of such wonder and purpose

Lost to me in a single drop of spring rain
Gone for all time with a glimpse of a flower along a  
        dirty roadside
Forever pardoned with a sparrows song
Before this dream was new.. .. 
Stars sparkled to take the breath away
Moonglow was for wandering by & gazing long hours
I knew Life..
Before this dream was new.
