Quotes from Robin Williamson

and you and I left with the same old question the sheer unspeakable strangeness of being here at all

Someone you saw Stretched sleeping on the sand. Five withered violets Cradled in his hand. His dreams are so loud Calling in your ear. The yellow snake coils from the water And all is refreshed far and near.

And we began to sing and play, To lightly dance in rings and faster turn. No man within that hall could keep his seat But needs must dance and leap Against his will. This was the way we danced them to the door And sent them on their way into the world Where they will leap amain Till they think one kind thought. from The Dancing of the Lord of Weir

The new moon is rising the eyelid of God is approaching The humane train the skating raining travelling voice of certainty

Born in a house where the door's shut tight Shadowy fingers on the curtains at night Cherry tree blossom head high snow A busy main road where I wasn't to go

Mad as the moon when Merlin falls.
