Cleaves the blue
Where clouds fall free
To either side
Observing from
Peaceful repose
While nature wars
‘Tween earth and sky
Observing from
Peaceful repose
While nature wars
‘Tween earth and sky
All I need
Is to open them
To see truly
And the light floods in
I love to follow the arc
Luxuriate in the sensation
Experience the emotion of tone
Map out the journey of my eye
Through the continents of shapes
Beauty
.
Though when they do
They’re not the same
But when they’re gone
They’re lost forever
The scene reminds
Of days gone by
The stormy times
The years I lost
Blown well off course
Blown all to hell
But I rowed back
Against the swell
“Don’t worry, love”
Was her reply
“I’ll stay with you
This long dark night
“When comes the morn’
You’ll see sun rise
As you look
Into my eyes
I will be the willow
And not the hammer
I will be the water
And not the rock
Where there is hate
I will love
Where there is greed
I will give
Love puts the ground under my feet
The skip in my step
The stars in my sky
The hope in my heart
It is the grey world of the mundane
Which confounds my seeking
Where everything which casts a shadow
Seems lighter than the darkness
