URANUS, King of the Sky, Father of Time

URANUS the Magician by Gustav Holst



Distant, afar
Away from view
Yet always watching
Uranus father of time
Father of the pantheon
Born of Chaos
Arisen from the nothing
Mother earth
Gaia his bride
Fearing the children
Gaia bore him
He consigned them
To Tartarus
Where Gaia freed them
To castrate and destroy
Uranus
And cast him away
Into the sea
Foaming
Frothing
Washing him
From view
