Call em up

Dust em off

Let em shine

The ones who hold onto the ones, they had to leave behind

Beneath a little wooden cross

Oceans away

They bend like trees in winter, these shuffling old gray lions

Though snow white stars still gather, like the belt around Orion.

Just a touch of faded lightning, of the powerful design,
16
Of the generation gathered, for maybe the last time.

Shoulder to shoulder, back in the day, sleeping bones to rest in Earth
