There's a darkness in the hallway A cold, cold silence hangs about Now that the final candle Has flickered and died out. The wind without the four walls Turns its whisper to a weep But neither wind nor rain can enter Where all the sisters sleep. Out across the moorlands The winter's packed and gone And springtime reigns majestic With the first new lambs now born. But the sisters they see nothing There is a darkness in their eyes Imprisoned thus forever No door nor window to the skies. Time has passed and proven Each one equal to any man So we treasure the web once woven By Charlotte - Emily and Anne. Geoffrey Price. 1997.
