A Time Clear To See


Its easy to feel so alone, if all I see is this single stone, Its crazy, to think that without sight, I would walk blind through this Life, Never walking in light, always knowing the emptyness of the night, The stones don't talk, so further I walk, I see at times rythim in rhyms written and played upon the fabrics torn and frayed, Sometimes deep in the darkest reaches you'll find loves touch magnificently arrayed, Without words a single glance at the broken peices will be what preaches, Ears once closed will open to hear the shouts within, for true freedom to begin. Eyes are lifted so high staring at the moon and stars hovering above every who, what, where and why, Sigh...Who am I looking for, whats the next page of my life going bare that past pages never bore before, where will I be, next time my heart soars from land into wide open sea, a place where change warmly developes new thoughts and dreams, Embracing the love that forever flows in steady streams, Theres more to this life than what These colorfull lights and awsome structures of stone are telling, Theres more written beneath the surface of black and white thats forever been dwelling, Stories told, seem to be crazy, boring, maybe even old, but One stands the test of time though, crosses the deep blue and reaches both sides of a plowed and unplowed hedgerow, Basic story of good verses evil, Who surrendures to whomever, their very will, The mountain path, the journey toward the summit that means overcoming, struggling, each mile chased by evils wrath, Giving in looks so sweet, looking down the mountain the walk appears easy on the feet, But only darkness can be seen far below, Passing by one or two, I try to tell them what I know, The truth within that has set me free, from the darkness that hungers for a soul that wanders aimlessly, They try to cling to my side, Hoping for a free ride, but its all in vain as time only strengthens my stride, and I lose those who have never tried, Never gave up their hopeless pride, Never asked for the light of truth to fill them deep inside, And so the story moves on to where everything in life will so brilliantly collide, Until the sun, moon and stars set still, the core of every living thing embracing solitudes silent chill, Where no more time is left to ask, or even wonder about a single task, For it will be a time clear to see, Life on earth has given way to eternity.

LIFE


Looking at creation my heart beat rises from joyfull elation, Here in a distant nation, I have a growing hunger from a personal starvation, But looking at creation I feel sudden inhalation filling me within, The sky opens up and rain pours down upon my skin thats been wearing thin, I lift my eyes and then my chin, and Tears fall like rain again and again, Upon my knees with one hand grasping another tightly, I awake just slightly to the sounds of a morning blooming, Warm breezes blowing, fragrances of life begin flowing, Gods awsome Beauty showing, My heart recharges by knowing, Today is a day the Lord has made, and though this day will soon fade, I will spend my day rejoicing and being glad in it, quiet times spent with God in whome I am completely dependant, Recharges this life half spent with no trace of where it went, What does time offer though but reflections of an already opened window, Opened by a director who planned my lifes entire show, Reguardless here I go, on my way further out there, discovering more of the one who was willing to care, willing to die to share, Life.
