there shouldn't be any need to fear,

if you could listen through Malchus' ear,

if you could give Gamaredes your dignity,

walk with children's feet,

no one should fear the weather,

we'll find ourselves walking on the water,

if we can drink the fruit of the vine,

we are branches of the vine,

walking with sheeps eyes...
.
.
.
.
.
He who has ears, let him hear,

listen to what the parable of the sower means,

we're all brothers and sisters and we need each others love,

the soil is not meant to bleed...
.
.
.
We were born to graze,

harrowing One Love we can cultivate,

so why do we procrastinate?

procrastinate...
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Shadows of the sun reflect upon the alter,

where the thorns and thistles malinger,

pink eye of Jesus leaves the children feeling homesick,

while the tractor's ran by the charlatan...
.
.
.
.
.
He who has ears, let him hear,

listen to what the parable of the sower means,

we're all brothers and sisters and we need each others love,

the soil is not meant to bleed...
.
.
.
We were born to graze,

harrowing One Love we can cultivate,

so why do we procrastinate?

procrastinate...

We were born to graze,

harrowing One Love we can cultivate,

now is it too little too late?

too late...
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
He who has ears, let him hear,

SOW YOUR LITTLE MUSTARD SEED,

WE'RE ALL BROTHERS AND SISTERS WHO NEED EACH OTHERS LOVE,

the soil is not meant to bleed...
.
.
.
We were born to graze,

harrowing One Love we can cultivate,

so why do we procrastinate?

procrastinate...

show me how it's done,

show me how's it done,

show me how it's done,

show us how to live...
.

But if the bright lights don't receive you
You should turn yourself around and come back home" MB20

Very inquisite poetry. I enjoyed reading it, unfortunatly in life we're not always albe to be the brethren we're supposed to be.

Btw, is that an Ovation you've got there? Just got myself an Ovation CC057 very fine guitar, my 3rd Acoustic, though my first Acoustic-Electric

Good morning, my dear ministering minstrel!
The lyrics are rich and interlaced with divine messages!

The following lines will be especially memorable fo me.

"if we can drink the fruit of the vine,

we are branches of the vine,"

~ we bare some responsibility for the fruit of the vine of which we partake.

Love, Peace, & Harmony,
Linda
