Today
I will be more than I was before
I came into a world
That was created
By others before me
And
I entered
Not knowing
Wanting to learn
Wanting to be more
I have learned
That
To make the world a better place
Begins with me
If I can remember
To always leave things
Better than I have found them
Then
I have learnt
The lesson
Of life
Please
Tread softly on the Earth

There’s a feeling inside of me
That I call love
It’s warm and it’s cuddly
And a gift from above
Love is a word
That is hard to describe
A feeling a knowing
It comes from inside
When a person’s in love
They radiate Grace
They’re glowing they’re happy
It shows on their face
The day can be rainy
Or blustery cold
But when love is around
It is beauty to behold
This four letter word
Can express just so much
A warm compassionate voice
And a gentle touch
They say love is just
In the eye of the beholder
But when love is around
People don’t grow older
For love is the panacea
For everlasting Grace
For when love is around
It brightens up the place

Brrr it’s cold
My feet can’t feel
I cover my ears
I’ve missed a meal
I can’t walk out
On ice I’ll fall
My car won’t start
And now it’s stalled
I miss my friends
Miss my old life now
I hear a noise
It’s the old snow plow
What do I do
When it gets cold
Can’t walk around
I’m not that bold
So I think I’ll try
To find my house
Will have to call out
To my very warm spouse
And ask for help
To get inside
The yellow snow
Will be my guide

When I think of all the things I’ve done
The places I have been
I wonder at the logic of all
And what I’ve heard and seen
Which comes first the chicken or egg
Do we think or are thoughts given to us
Do we process all that we’ve become
Or is it just the dice in a toss
I think and therefore I transform
I do and slowly I am
Do my thoughts create or am I the God
Do I exist or am I a scam
I know you must think this is all much dribble
Just thoughts pouring out of my mind
And yet I’m on the discovery road
My thoughts and my being combined
We need to master we need to transform
We need to ground all that we learn
We need to grow up to who we’re meant to be
We tend to move to what we do yearn
I am therefore I become
I learn and then I grow
I try new things until I am that
Until I become the flow

I want to have this
I want to have that
We scream and we yell
And become quite a brat
My friend has a new house
Another has a car
What other people have
Is how we set our bar
We forget to look at
All the things that we own
We think we need more
Until we’re all alone
What we long for is such
That it changes who we are
We forget social graces
We fight and we spar
We become what we long for
Forget what is real
Stomach aches head is hurting
We feel really ill
If we’d stop for a moment
Take a breath and relax
The image of what we’ve become
Will stop us in our tracks
What we want is not real
What we long for is crap
What we’ve become will soon be
Our life long road map
So let go of the physical
Let go of the need
Look deeper inside
And grow a new seed
Be happy and grateful
For all you possess
Become more and let go of
All that not needed stress
For where you set your mind
Is where you will go
Relax and be happy
And follow your inner flow

Is there someone you like
Is there someone you trust
Is there someone you hold in affection?
Is there someone you admire
Is there someone who supports
Is there someone with whom you make a connection?
Then maybe it is a friend you have found
You know there are few from afar
To find such as this one that is truthful and clear
And can be held up to and beyond par
A friend is a person on who you can count
Even when the going gets tough
You know they’ll support you and guide you with love
And will never treat you too rough
For friends are the people we look for in life
They are hard to find and we need to hold on
For once we have found one be sure not to let go
Treat them well before they are gone
For a true fiend is one you want to respect
You want to hold them in esteem
You want to support them and show them your truth
You want them to be on your team
So look for a friend that is authentic and true
Look for a friend that is wise
Look for a friend that supports who you are
Look for the one that’s a prize
And let them know what they’re doing is right
Let them know that their lives are touching yours
Let them know that their presence can make a true difference
A true friend can be a real cure
For most of our ailments come from being alone
And having no one by our side
A true friend is one that understands your pain
And takes everything else in their stride
