I could wait a lifetime for the leaves of compassion
to fall upon our hearts, and watch the sun play
with rainbows after a summer shower.
I could go to sleep under a giant tree, flowers falling
upon me while dreaming peacefully in wonder.
I could count all the rocks in the green shallow
stream of color, that colored my path of golden
reddish-blue pink cobblestones of offering the poor
and saddened people who laughed within, a
comforting hand from my heart of light.
I could call my name on top of a mountain, and
listen to my name across fields and streams filled
with earthly treasures, and gather each thought
and put them in a clay *** for my ancestors to
read my thoughts with clarity.
I could ride the waves of glory catching lightening
like fish. Throwing it toward the clouds of dark
regrets.
I could capture the evil that lurks around
each corner, crack, hidden under dirt
filled paths of yesterdays dreams and
promises, trying to renew the stardust
I could wait a lifetime for the leaves of compassion
disillusioned with darkness.
I could shine my light and brighten the
earth bringing world peace, in just a
second, it would become a true reality
of unconditional love.
