I was in search of a song that sings the joy of blue skies to dispel the gloom of darkness and the despair of old sad scars.
You went off in search of a song across the seas, over the mountains to a land where the old tribes made sense of the mystery of life in a ritual of song and dance.
I was in search of a song to take me to an elven ring deep in the dark forest and teach me hidden wisdoms.
You went off in search of a song across the seas, along overgrown footpaths to old manuscripts and broken artefacts to share the wisdom of life and the gods in a ritual of song and dance.
I was in search of a song You went off in search of a song And we met each other in A Midwinter Night's Dream We feasted on mystic melodies We became drunk on love of lyrics And danced to the rhythms of the ritual of music that was, is and will be.
The very first song of hers that I heard was The Lady of Shalott and then I bought The Visit. I believed it was a feat that could not be repeated till I listened to The Mask and the Mirror, learned that it could be done. Then I bought both The Mask and the Mirror and The book of secrets. And you know when people say I will grab this or that when my house starts burning, my LM CD's will be among my first priorities after the pets.
Thank you, Loreena's music is an inspiration. Art is like a dialogue or dance between the artist and the need of the audience. When these two join hands in rapport, well then you have one of those treasured perfect moments in time. People debate whether "love at first sight" is possible but I can firmly state "love at first listening" is very much possible and real. I have been in love with LM music since I heard it the first time.

That is a nice poem
I like the way you switch between "I was" and "You went". And then finally the two meet.
By the way Welcome to the board. Hope you'll be fine here and have a good time.
