Leaves and Water on the Rocks Poem Lyrics

Leaves and water on the rocks

A hillside down by day

At night the weavers take their turn

Enchanted by the bay

For see not their reflection

But the water's turning gold

For what becomes of sunsets

When the heartbeat shivers cold

Like ringlets through the ages

Are the loops of crystal's time

For what remains is now undone

The bell's toll now will chime

Like stardust will the mountains be

And stairs like valleys still

The ancient sunset now is done

And warm now does the chill
