I can’t believe it’s not easy to be a part of the world
Born into a time of confusion
Lack of nutrients
Decompose back into the garden
Didn’t we all run free?
Barefoot in the middle of nowhere
Innocent dwellings on the way to the moon
I’ll hang it up there really high
As high as my hopes are
Hopes of abundant blessings that lead to where it all started
Before we knew real hunger
The land was so full
Restoration wasn’t a thought
Now, here we are
Trying so hard to make it back
Take me back to the old days
Where my soul had just begun
All the way to the end of time
That’s where my heart will run
I will not be contained
Do not put me in a box
My body will feel the pain
But my soul will not
Sprinkle my ashes in the morning
Watching the sun rise
Spend no time mourning
My love never dies
The circle of life you see
In the golden hour of up’s and downs
That’s where I will be
Making bird sounds
Listen to your heart
Hear the music of the birds
Our souls are true art
What we see are the words.
beautiful pacing. love the use of white space on the page.
I often joked with my wife to bury me in our garden.
Many a truth’s been uttered in jest.
Thank you. I wouldn’t mind being buried in my garden. As above so below. I enjoyed writing this one.
