Hummingbird from Godspeed by David Segall

As I was sitting in my garden
A hummingbird flew to me
And she whispered in my ear.
She had the voice of an angel
And I knew she was a spirit
'Cause her beauty made it clear.
Her breath of sweetness drifted to me
And the words she spoke rang through me,
Marinating in my mind.
She had come for just a moment
To remind me of the splendour
Of a love that is Divine.

I tasted of her sweet forgiveness,
The essence of the love she gave to me.
I was replenished by her soothing song -
Her tender voice still resonates in me

I fell into a peaceful slumber
And my dreams were full of wonder,
Flying through a painted sky.
I had wings of silk as feathers,
Soaring over stormy weather,
Winds of peace carrying me high.
She was flying south for winter
To the forests of the tropics
In the southern hemisphere.
She said we'd meet again one morning,
Crossing paths without a warning,
When I sailed the ocean clear.

A thousand hummingbirds have found me -
Their grace and love surround me,
Pollinating in my soul.
As I weave through many gardens,
I am guided by the music -
It follows everywhere I go.
