A wayward spirit drifts above the mortals down below
The hand of faith stays close on by as guide of where to go
The stagnate face of duty with robotic ways progress
Each prayer from disconcerted souls, the lord above does bless

The grass grows in the paddock, still no greener there beyond
The image grows no younger on the watcher of the pond
A tranquil soul begot of hurt becomes of they with smile
A seed of need that love does feed, does come but in a while

To then a man or woman free, with life within their heart
To offer all their inner strength, to all until they part
Who find peace as they wander through the corridors of being
To share by write or quiet word, the love of which they’re seeing
