Ravine Angel - Wheel of Fortune

You cross earth now
You cross the water now
You cross the ice now
And the exulting ending
As we came into the centerfall
Together
We have crossed the ice
Into the hearthplace
Into life
Bringing life
In the act of creation, praise!

It's been nearly fifty years
And I have to admit
I do not recall everyone

From my first kemmer
Karrid, Arrad, Hama and Gehardar
Old Tubanny, the most exquisitely skillful lover as a male I ever knew-
I met him often in later kemmers-
and Berre, my golden fish
with whom I ended up in drowsy
peaceful, blissful lovemaking
in front of the great hearth
till we both fell asleep

And when we woke we were not women
We were not men
We were not in kemmer
We were very tired young adults
