Body

and so I stand
alone with open hands
a single child
still feeling young and wild
and having fun
as if I've not begun
to understand
what man or gods have planned

though years have crossed my path I laugh at time
as I remain secure in my sublime
learn to enjoy life's bitter herbs and lime
and distance can be banished in this rhyme

and so I sit
small part of it
the grand design
the bottom line
from endless birth
what life is worth
is reasonless
just happiness

though jaded cynics may call it naive
though fear condemns the best man to deceive
there is no end to what you can receive
when you know in love you believe
when you know all you need to believe in is
in love you believe

and so I fly
to touch the sky
and sing my song
where I belong
no need for cause
no never was
just here and now
and just allow

love to carry me
love to set me free
love's epiphany
love is all I need to be
