If paradise had a name
A prism of the tongue
I would speak it to you, and hear
The tinkling laughter that bless'd the air
And clouds would hear my poem
And spread it through the rain
And eager faces turned to the spring
Would feel my words also
Chuckles showered 'cross the green
Sunny minds would face each other
And grinning, speak the words of meaning
What charmed thoughts would dot the village squares,
And sighing fields of this land
You'd bring that be
A conduit of mercy
A funnel of good will
What wonderful eyes you have that
Look into the skies with me
