star of the east
jewel of midnight
lotus song
cherry blossom
a northern dragon
wanders into swift sands
seeking that which was lost

waters that flow from deep chambers
are yours for the sharing
please
by divine appointment
shine upon my stilled lake
that damnable dams be burst
and the river again flow

heart of my heart
keeper of my breath
return to me now
the hour is late

for a wanderer seeking that which was lost
