LISTEN to the sound of children laughing in the playground as they run around in circles trying to chase their shadows and the light that holds even those back.
HELLO, DEAR STRANGER THIS IS WHERE I BROOK-BABBLE, THINK, AND SOMETIMES, SEE.
A FOOTNOTE
If you are a dreamer, come in. If you are a wisher, a liar, a hoper, a prayer, a magic bean buyer. If you are a pretender, come sit by my fire, for we have some flax-golden tales to spin. Come in! Come in! - Shel Silverstein
I rant, I share thoughts and wonderings, and occasionally I will even manage a rare little epiphany or two, although the moment of rusty clarity can't ever last in glorious impermanence.
I have loved the words and I have hated them, and I hope I have made them right. Listen to these words and don't talk for a while. There's a difference between hearing and listening.
I try to picture the girl Through a looking glass See her as a carbon atom See her eyes and Stare back at them See that girl As her own new world Though her home is on the surface She is still a universe
Glory god or goddess Peeking through the blinds Are we all here standing naked Taking guesses at the Actual date and time Oh my, justifying reasons why Is an absolutely insane Resolution to live by
Live high Live mighty Live righteously Takin' it easy Live high Live might Live righteously
Try to picture the man To always have an open hand See him as a giving tree See him as matter Matter o' fact he's not a beast No, not the devil either Always a good-deed-doer And it's laughter that we're makin' after all
The call of the wild is Still in order nationwide In the order of the primates All our politics are too late Oh my, the congregation In my mind Is this assembly singing o' gratitude Practicing their lovin' for you
Live high Live mighty Live righteously Takin' it easy Live high Live mighty Live righteously
And just take it easy And celebrate the malleable reality Because nothing is ever as it seems Oh this life is but a dream...
(Lift me up to the Almighty Raise your hands and start acknowledging)
Live high Live mighty Live righteously Just takin' it easy Live high Live mighty Live righteously
Live high Live mighty Live righteously Just takin' it easy Live high Live mighty Live righteously
Just... take it easy...
WOWs - WORDS OF WONDERING
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
A bell's no bell 'til you ring it, A song's no song 'til you sing it. And love in your heart wasn't put there to stay - love isn't love till you give it away.
All answers have questions but not all questions have answers.
When is it, do you know, when the colors get so dazzling you wish you were colorblind?
Unzip your mind.
If music be the food of love, play (strikethrough) ROCK on.
I've got one foot in AdultHood and the other longing to stay in ChildHood. My mind wanders and I go where it will take me. I would like to learn to lose myself so I can find that place again.
