Ours

Sunlight , warmth and rain

charge us with energy

 

Our journey extended

with long pauses between

 

Times of great conflict

and overwhelming difficulty

 

Times it seems we arrive alone

and times we are a nation

 

We are products of the stream of creation

from ancient stock

 

Touching between our grandfathers

and our grandchildren’s lives

 

We come and go unafraid

to give and take life’s mystery

 

In tides of passions ebb and flow

our spirits rise In the echoes of joy and laughter

 

joined in our dreams

Moments together and apart

 

ever so a team, Following our inner voices

wading through the stream of life

 

Learning to grow through the means and extremes

At times we hover just above our bodies and material minds

 

Focusing our energies within becoming more spiritually inclined

Rising to observe directing our energies to serve

 

In beams and pulses as the stars watch overhead

we cross paths in our routines

 

contacts made hold a place

wherein we convey our spark of life

 

in choices, made or not

in crossings of the t’s and i’s we place our dot

 

In stories we have read

This moment of eternity...

 

Is all we’ve got

Unless our spark...

 

Is enabled

And given opportunity to ignite

 

setting fires to the hearts of many

Or a few

 

Even one, who holds

the key to the balance

 

Choosing the right moment

to do what it is...

 

In our hearts

to do
