Winter/Spring

Two Ravens 032


round the circle, twelve the signs
each with others now aligns

midnight rat in darkness found
dawnlight ox in harness bound
tiger's eye prelude to death
rabbit crouching holding breath
dragon rises from the sea
snake speaks wisdom craftily
horse's mane is flecked with steam
goat's bright gaze is locked in dream
monkey chatters never still
rooster rules his kingdom hill
dog is guardian of the gate
boar is good enough for fate

round the circle, twelve the signs
each with others now aligns
