The Thunderbirds Come from the Cedars
C. Cadman
The thunderbirds come from their forest of cedars,
The Thunder God roars as they hide the sun's beams;
The winds path I tread with their black wings above me,
Yet fearless am I who have known them in dreams.
The swallows before and the bird-hawks that follow,
They herald the storm and the Thunder Gods might;
Yet brave is my heart when his yellow eye flashes,
And forth at my call comes the Maker of Light.
E tho he the tho!
