In the winds of change
Stand your ground and look forward
To the flush of dawn
Don’t give up!
Trading lives
With such intrigue
Pulling wool over our eyes
They peddle with lives
The element of chance
There is an element of chance
In craving for that one last dance
The one that thrills anticipation
Yet flutters you with consternation
There is that element of a dream
Where it is not all that it may seem
Wonder consumes reality in its hours
Like heat condensed by a flash of showers
There is an element of magic around
Grace catches you without even a sound
Slowly spirals her sage incense in the air
You’re wise, cleansed, nothing left to fear
There is an element of fire in your eyes
There’ll be no more hesitation and empty sighs
The dawn breaks open sparkling rays of light
Bubbling celebrations will fill the dim of night
The element of chance I found waiting for me
Is the same one I’m hoping will set you free.
Endurance
Nature finds a way
To move through cycles of life
One step at a time
A hangover
Uncertainty rules
When hearts and minds divide us–
Which shall lead the way?
Paying it forward
A tale of hardship
Shed light on how a stranger
Made a difference
Yes, I will
Yes, I will
Wait for the warmth of your breath
As you whisper in my ear
Calling my name.
Yes, I’m ready
To sip wine from your harvest
Tasting the soil and human toil
As you kiss my lips
Yes, I’m coming
With the river’s great rush
Feeling it’s caress on my skin
As I take all of you in
Yes, I promise
That I’ll watch the blush with you
Of sunrise and sunsets
As your fire fuels my flame
Yes, I must
Breathe the crisp fresh fragrance
Of your mountains and forests
As I lie down with you
Yes, I know
All your cracks and fault lines
Still I see the beauty in you
Yes, I love you all the same
Looking ahead…
The roaming river
Is now a pond, tomorrow
Is deserting us
Rising to the fall
Temperatures soar
as hot heads prevail, trampling
all over the world.
Just keep walking
