Eden’s Reply
(Dan Prendiville & Clinger)
lyrics ©2010 Ken Clinger

rosary beads and sesame seeds
the notion begins to fade
lemon rings where the ocean sings
a canapé in the shade

Apollo smiles beyond the tiles
the humans cast aside
rasta smart view master’s harp
where dewdrop children hide

the fanfare of the ancients
trailing concepts in their wake
prehistoric lore
ignores the dna of apes
tales of orcs and hobbits
energize us from the screen
primal seeds awaken
from the slumber of our dreams

charisma ooze in greens and blues
the cobweb climate’s stain
Andromeda splits where the Milky Way hits
yet galactic cores remain

in the mind’s eye we hear Eden’s reply
when the gatekeeper’s lost in sleep
I measure my thoughts and untangle the knots
catching fragments I want to keep

the clerics aghast at the messages cast
from the heavenly source within
wind sculptured sands reveal more of a plan
than a dance on the head of a pin

the measure of ancients
trailing legends in their wake
prehistoric codes now tend to
give less than they take
tales of space and angels
stimulate us from the screen
primal sparks igniting
from the slumber of our dreams.
