i know it was a dream
because i awoke from it
i am in a group, standing in a circle
our arms are around each others waistlines
we are singing and chanting an ancient song
i don't understand the phrases,
yet they feel familiar
we drone together
softly prayerlike
i awake and still hear
the sounds reverberating
i try to sing them softly
so as not to forget
the magic melody,
the sacred words-
a blessing, beyond
this lifetime's comprehension
