Flitting around Feelings abound Opinions change There is no ground It all unravels And it dazzles As it spins and spins And the soul travels Toward the light The truth that’s bright Buffeted by thoughts Wounded by slights And it weans And moves free and lean Away from its home It’s seventeen! And the dices And spices Fill the air With chance At prices Running storm clouds Lifting all shrouds Finding out And wondering aloud Amid confusion And intrusion Sorting out Ideas’ illusions And the heart stops And the shoe drops Pains infuses Where the ball hops Changing, flexing Bursting, connecting The chrysalis emerges Cocoon dissecting

The Chrysalis
Flitting around Feelings abound Opinions change There is no ground It all unravels And it dazzles As it spins and spins And the soul travels Toward the light The truth that’s bright Buffeted by thoughts Wounded by slights And it weans And moves free and lean Away from its home It’s seventeen! And the dices And spices Fill the air With chance At prices Running storm clouds Lifting all shrouds Finding out And wondering aloud Amid confusion And intrusion Sorting out Ideas’ illusions And the heart stops And the shoe drops Pains infuses Where the ball hops Changing, flexing Bursting, connecting The chrysalis emerges Cocoon dissecting
