The day of long shadows

When the light is bright
The contrast clear
The chill in the air
It’s that time of year

When days are short
Nights are long
But this is no tie to mourn
For this is the hour

This is the moment
For the giants to stand
Taller than before
This is the day of long shadows

Taller in the light of the sun
Touching heights you never dreamed of
Reaching out for that which is beyond
This is the day

So stand tall
In the day of long shadows
In the moment
In the hour

Stand tall and don’t shrink back
Enjoy the moment
Where you can stand tall
And touch the heights
