Thank you for this perfect day
A lot of play
A little graze
Ice held up to the deep blue sky
The look of fun within your eye
God bless
All these sheltered walls
These flowers and our power tools
Laughs of games of chasing lions
Time to play and play and dance
And dance and fly, a moment freely
Leaning back, a great big wheelie
Three kids shine
A train on a slide
Do we show or do we hide?

I would till the land for you
And plant the seed the whole day through
So we might feast come harvest time
And sing and dance and dance and shine

I'd give this gift if it were mine
But I took and pass this rhyme
We both received the gift of life.

So bless the lord for his design
Or lady luck for rolling fives
Which hand in hand may come alive

Let's relish in this perfect day
And sway the cool, calm night away

In moments of eternal play
We rise and rise and rise, and lay x

Your face, I see it
(or is it felt?)

You climb up from the wave pool like a beaching seal,
and stand on the blue tiles
"Go further" you say
and you leap in a gigantic belly flop
To be caught
under the armpits
face to face and eye to eye
grin to grin for a split second
division of time,
until we carry on
"Again!"

And these little raindrops are captured by history itself
that they might fill a water ****
and nourish our souls again

And so from the black and total oneness
--from the dark depths unto above--
through starlight, see this:
the flowering of love

Avoid nothing
Have yourself
Look at reality
In all its wealth

That doesn't mean I run my mouth
Or fight flashing anger when it turns south

Just,
I level my gaze to my
self
I look through my eyes and behold the haze
And I hold my health

We're ready, come any end
But while we're alive we've got love to defend.
It's understandable
   to err in the profane
Love yourself, so you can love again

I can* meet my gaze
It’s come
We are friends
--Come be the one
Upon who you depend.

Embrace yourself
With all your strength
Till death do us part
Hold tight to the end

I love you my child,
My chimp and my muse
Let’s hold on tight now
Because I have you.

Be not quiet. Shout!

To quiet your mind
Elbow intruders
To embrace eye to eye
The one who was born
And with whom you will die

To hold each other's body, heart and mind.
To have and to hold and to seek throughout time.

Love yourself,
And extend your love
For we’re all dust from stars above

And love yourself
A plant that grew
The knowledge and the one that knew

Fiercely,
and tenderly
With all your love’s might
Embrace for all time and fight through the night.

Do not deprive the gift
of your sight
Come my friend,
Hold on to the light

Thank you for this perfect day
A lot of play... a little graze

Ice held up to deep blue sky
The look of fun within your eye
God bless these here sheltered walls
These flowers
and our power tools
Laughs and games
of chasing lions
Time to play and play and dance
and dance and fly a moment, freely
leaning back, a great big wheelie...
three kids shine, a train on a slide
are we on show? Or do we hide?

I would till the land for you
and plant the seed the whole day through
so we might feast come harvest time
and sing and dance and dance and shine

I'd give this gift,
if it were mine--
who just received and passed the rhyme--
So bless the lord for his design,
or Lady Luck for rolling fives--
which hand, in hand, may come alive.

Let's relish in this perfect day
and sway the cool, calm night away
In moments of eternal play
We rise
and rise
and rise
and lay

Once bound
never lost
even as your body goes

adventures in time
but our repost
is a soul that knows and knows

And even memories
may fade
no one knows the words they said
But as much as we're bound to die
The Earth is bound up in the sky
Beyond the realms of you or I
Where purest energy can fly

So fly!

And fly!

Behind your eyes

The atoms passed up this surprise
a life we know, a life we ride
So turn to it
and do not hide
or yearn for it
and be the sky
within the realms of you and I

Wherever you are: Find love.

I was blessed that my fruits fell from above.
But if you have to look right
or left
find love.

With whatever strength you're blessed
find love.

For a future sweet goodbye,
find love --- where time will fly on swiftly by
and love will teach you how to cry
But here we are and here we find
our family within mankind

So don't give up upon your search
Worship at our love's one church.
Look up, below and all round
for love upon this earthly ground.
