Jubal sang of the wrath of God and the curse of thistle and thorn,
But Tubal got him a pointed rod and scrabbled in the earth for corn.
But Tubal got him a pointed rod and scrabbled in the earth for corn.
Old, old is that
early mold, young as the sprouting grain,
Yearly greed is the strife
between,
Jubal and Tubal Cain!
Jubal sang of the new found sea and the
love that it's waves divide,
But Tubal hollowed a fallen tree and passed to
the further side.
Black, black as the hurricane rack, salt as the undermain,
Bitter and cold is the hate they hold,
Between Jubal and Tubal
Cain!
Jubal sang of the golden years when wars and wounds shall
cease,
But Tubal fashioned the hand flung spears and showed his neighbours
peace.
New, new as the nine point two, older than Lamak slain,
Roaring and loud is the feud avowed,
Twix Jubal and Tubal Cain!
Jubal sang of the
cliffs that bar and the peaks that none may crown,
But Tubal clamored by junk
and scar and there he built him a town.
High, high as the snow sheds lie, low
as the cold rich drain,
Wherever they be, they can never agree,
I enjoyed reading that poem Daniel, lovely flow of words. Blessed Mabon...)O(... ^_^
