| | "Into The West" - Annie Lennox - Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King</i | ] |
From over a hundred souls arises the sound,
made on hand-crafted instruments,
through which emanates a song
that mere hands could never craft.
The music floats above them,
coalescing into a near-invisible cocoon
of swirling iridescent light
into which our souls, too,
float,
are enveloped,
merge with its essence
and become whole.
During each long pause,
we create our response with our hands,
and remember what it is
to experience divinity within the body -
what it is
to be
human.
