The rain began falling when Wendell left for the Ridge, So he stopped to take cover beneath an old wooden bridge He couldn't wait any longer, so he pulled up his hood And started the path out from his old neighborhood The rain was quite heavy, there was no end in sight But he continued to trudge for 2 days and 1 night When the skies started clearing, over the horizon Wendell saw what he thought to be, the Tree of Poseidon It stood high on the Ridge, and the sun cast down a shadow Over the rocks and the cliff into the valley below The path up the Ridge, it was so tricky and viral The slightest miscalculation would send him down in a spiral But with self-determination he would pull himself up And out of his sack he pulled an old pewter cup He held the cup up, to the dripping wet tree And collected the moisture that rolled off of a leaf When the cup was quite full, he drank it all down He spotted the stone, and his feet left the ground As Wendell rose above the rocks and tree he gazed upon, the yonder sea A breeze picked up and carried him that way In the air above, the rocky shore, where only gods and osprey soar Poseidon's Tree had carried him away... Take me away (sanctified by thy root, safe inside of my room) Across the sea, over the great divide, for the first time he saw the other side And like a wave he rolled into the bay The first to see it of his kind, the first to touch, the first to find This place that was so very far away Take me away (sanctified by thy root, safe inside of my room) Now with the earth beneath his feet, into the woods where he would meet A dark man who approached him to say... "Hochamiki, likikiki, meeke fung", when translated to Wendell's native toungue Meant young man, here you cannot stay Take me away (sanctified by thy root, safe inside of my room)
