Pale Rider

A seagull flies out over the ice and perches,
half a moon above the birches,
pale rider on a white horse.

The sunset shines in the eye of a loon as she watches
falling shadows for the foxes,
a little blood on the bone knife,
pale rider on a white horse.

The raven dreams he sees through the eyes of the dying
into a sky full of dark wings.
Night comes to take us home,
a little blood on the bone knife,
pale rider on a white horse.

The sun returns and burns gold into the shallows.
An eagle watches from the willows.
There's a flash in the river.
Night comes to take us home,
a little blood on the bone knife,
pale rider on a white horse.
