Farther then the eyes can see
up beyond that big bend
they wait:
Surprises, miracles
Challenges, inspirations
New friends, old voices
Dyings and blossomings
Our choice:
Run, skip, snail’s pace
tumble, walk, speed
or transported by tornado
In the wheel on the earth
midst the path of our own lives
A new song of praise
rose from your heart
Shared and released
for humans and other creatures
above, below, and afar
We held hands and prayed
for peace, for love
for balance everywhere
And we welcomed
the rising sun on a new day
The tiny seed sat suspended
In the waiting
With quiet excitement
Wanting with every fiber
Wishing to burst forth
And grow into
Its majestic magnificence
Waiting patiently
For the ideal conditions
Waiting…
Push and tug
up and down
Sometimes the journey
is not all about sound
Keeping the centered feeling
where it can be found
We sing in joyousness
we dance barefoot on the ground
‘Round and ‘round in circles
whether in country or town
Our souls just playing
They/ we just keep playing…
