Spirit… I try to do my best
and yes, many times have failed the test
because try is not a lot… only do… or do not…
here… now… seeing… simply… being…
take a breath… take a rest… and stop
we’re bombarded by impressions of all kinds
confusion overwhelms our minds
I feel thankfulness in giving… love makes life worth living…
kind… forgiving… tender mercy…
we need a rest… a breath… stop…
everyday the world seems to me rushing faster
rest is out of style
I’m weary of the shouting and opinions
I want peace… I remember…. your smile
I remember….
resistance is not the way
more and more, I’ve got less and less to say
chaos overtakes me… sometimes… life grabs hold and shakes me
I don’t know why…. but I know we can fly….
