I have traveled the universe in glory, touched a star
beyond reaching, I've climbed a mountain, flew
high like a hawk, free and fearless, I left each song
play through, like sparkling glitter in my soul.

I've swum streams of understanding, realizing life
maybe a struggle, only in living, shall we learn
the reason we are among the flowers blooming in
the wilderness of creation.

I have sought perfection in my own behavior, correcting
each motion that brought sadness, I've walked many miles
in many shoes, felt pain, brought laughter to those who
wore a frown.

I crossed the roads without a rose staring me in the face
I swept the paths of selfishness aside when the dust began
to pile up without notice, I've calmed the lonely heart
with love and affection, never looking back what could
cause friction and pain.

What was in this life I lived is no longer needed, I let it go.

I made friends along trails of knowledge, wisdom growing
as years passed, new roads appearing, destiny brightly
soaring forward, no dark clouds only shadows in the
distance, soon radiantΒ Β light shall cover the heavens bringing
the mighty wind of promise to a new world we have been
waiting for all generations.

Thoughts that appeared in mind no longer
shall bring confusion, we shall carry our own
free spirits, as we were born with free will.

We vibrate higher with tranquil thoughts rising
higher, in the rivers of tranquility and waters
of goodness among the weeping willow
trees that weep no more.
