The Raven -Rebecca Pidgeon My love is like a raven Black against a sky of grey With cold in your bones And the winter coming on And the smell of snow on the way The sun's going down But you're walking home The warmth will ease your pain Like a jet black raven in the sky My love is a bird of change My love is an autumn raven Above a field cut low And what she sees As she flies through the trees No man is going to know My love is a secret never told An omen to swear by Like a terrible raven overhead In the rolling autumn sky When the black night falls The raven calls And bathes me with her sweet breath And the rough grey blanket Weighs us down Into a sleep like death My love is an autumn raven Above a field cut low With the order of heaven pressing down And frost on the stubble below And the wisdom of the men and gods The folly of the day Is flying in the swift black raven In a sky of grey
