Literature Text
Rhiannon,
Sing to me like a bell through the night,
Take me to the sky on your wings like a bird in flight,
And chase away my worries like Stevie Nicks sang once upon a breath,
And chase away my worries like his song promised once upon a lyric.
Rhiannon,
Let your voice raise in those soothing tones,
Let me drift to slumber and let my mind slip away,
And when I wake, let my trouble be gone and the sky the most infinite blue,
And when I wake, let me hear the phantom song again in the far corners of my head.
Rhiannon,
Grace me with the sight of your three little birds,
Grace me with your lilting tune, and vanquish my strife and pain,
And when I rouse from the troubleless slumber, let me hear you promise everything is fine,
And when I rouse from the troubleless slumber, let me see you vanish into the fine clouds.
Rhiannon,
And when the sky is starless, appear to me before I dive back into reality, if I might glimpse your beauty,
And when the sky is starless, let me hear one more line, if I might grasp your illusion for another heartbeat.

Based on the Welsh myth of Rhiannon, a goddess whose three birds would appear in times of hardship and danger. Their song would cause you to drift asleep, and when you woke, the danger had passed and the sky was a wondrous blue. Sometimes you would glimpse her birds winging away, or even her saying that everything was alright and then disappearing into the clouds.
