The Silken Wind
by
Bob MacKenzie


Sliding down the sun
like a sky hung hawk in flight
I will follow you
through this timeless space
and ride the silken wind for you.

Like a clipper ship
on an endless sea of love
I will sail beyond
all the worlds I know
and ride the silken wind for you.

Like a drifting leaf
seeking some new home in fall
I will turn and turn
though the fires may flare
and ride the silken wind for you.

And by you obsessed
I will fly and sail and drift
and will drown for you
and will burn for you
and ride the wind for you.
