Light the Light
trim the wick and light the light
Fruits, melons, grapes, dance delight
Clusters of woman like us grew
And traveled their course blatant with fruit

Search carefully who you are
On golden grasses we count the hours
From were did we think the victory great
We pass our spheres to hero’s fate

Upon self-denial, death became, so liberty shall live
What men grew from unwitting looks impatient?
Do you believe any thing lives upon a moment?
Walk abreast with time, space and prudence

To affect is all the past and futures be
Substances of life becomes our truest offerings
Matching every thought or act with correlatives
Reaching masses of souls our sight of endless wisdom

In voice surpassing all forth which rhyme
Following who favors body and souls the same
Knows forgiveness in life and loss
To penetrate the inner most lore of song

I trim the wick and light the light
From hence becomes the darkest nights
Calling not on past down-drafted clouds
For lessons learned cleave brave our destinations loud

We’re free, sailing on a liquid soft
Our trials, lessons, fate…sure our tests of oft
How we gaze through windows pristine & opulent
Swiftly bending round…absorbing life so intimate...

Light the Light magnificant...
