In My Clearing Where It Never Snows

Part IV


In my clearing, where it never snows I learn of things that nobody knows. Even now when the animals sleep I wander in the snow so deep The forest still grows old. I think of all the things I've been told By the corvae in his poetic rhyme, The birth of a forest and the birth of time. I watched the prince grow into a king, I've listened to his song, which all the birds sing All the birds except the corvae Never a single note, never on a single day But he would sit and tell me of how the forest grows In my clearing, where it never snows I learn of things that nobody knows.
