Blackbird

Blackbird settled with a rustle of wings
Spied the one he was sent to find
Caught me peeking through my kitchen window
Stepped into my soul and mind

Sent by Rhiannon from the afterlife
Speaking tongues, beginnings and ends
Mysteries calling out from beyond the veil
Questions answers from the druid prayers
Quiet as a bottomless well
Or wild, wild as the wildest gale

Blackbird left a feather on my front porch
A message change was going to come
I watched the skies day and night
Paying heed to the moon-time and the sun

Blackbird sent by Odin shape shifter
Spectral figure looking for change
Moving between the unknown and the known
Ancestral spirits leading the way
