Lesus messiah ut, me decantus
Lesus messiah ut, me decantus
Lesus messiah ut, me decantus
Lesus messiah ut, me decantus

Never seen a bluer sky
Yeah, I can feel it reaching out
And moving closer
There's something about blue

Asked myself what it's all for
You know, the funny thing about it
I couldn't answer
No, I couldn't answer

Things have turned a deeper shade of blue
And images that might be real
Maybe illusion
Keep flashing off and on
Free
Wanna be free
Gonna be free
And move among the stars
You know, they really aren't so far
Feels so free
Gotta know free
Please
Don't wake me from the dream
It's really everything it seemed
I'm so free
No black and white in the blue

Everything is clearer now
Life is just a dream, you know
That's never-ending
I'm ascending

Ode to nature’s forgotten children

Photo by Sophia,
These simple lines,  
When combined,
Into complex thoughts,
Simple phonemic symbols,
Ancient poets wrought,
With power to make one tremble.
Epics lyrical,
Conceptual miracles,
Tales of dawn’s hero’s,
Arjuna of old,
Achilles so bold.
Through time,
We forgot,
The lessons they taught,
Reverence of nature, 
from whom’s bosom we nurtured.
When childlike,
In virgin-woods we hiked.
We explored,
And the first-children adored.
Before we self-reveled,
And great mountains leveled.
For what?
For naught.
For paper gold,
Our mother we sold.  

To the muses I pray,
For the eloquence to say,
Of the pains I see,
That we make be,
With the felling of so many a tree.

In the glades, 
Under canopy shade,
Is where I would have my relics laid.
Forevermore,
These earthy remains,
In the bosom I adore.
