Visionaries and each persons truth |

The visionaries so much see Of how the world will one day be But tales are told and others read As our world spins within our head The truth is that each day we care Much more for home than anywhere More of what looms good or bad Much more for joy than being sad The world is but a farmer’s field Just waiting for our crops to yield Some will plant their seeds of life While others plant and harvest strife I see what comes to others time again But most risks taken are by other men Most of us are watchers in the game that we do live With time we all accept and then forgive Visionaries world does spin But often we just can’t get in To find what future does behold To reach and find the pages that one-day we will unfold So vision this; tomorrow will be of what I make That I will have a bearing on which path I come to take And find the rainbow treasure that is lost to blinded man Sharing in life’s pleasures and then helping when I can |

So vision this; tomorrow will be of what I make That I will have a bearing on which path I come to take And find the rainbow treasure that is lost to blinded man Sharing in life’s pleasures and then helping when I can Life I believe, gives back to the giver...and you Rick...have a very astute middle eye...watch out...your intellect is showing...smiles and hugs...very much enjoyed |

I hear thy truths and methinks ye be a visionary thyself! It forever feeds my soul to read the mots of wisdom that ye impart! ~ May the sun rise up to greet you each dawning day! EA |

there's so much said here. I'm right with you Rick. I don't think life is a spectator sport, but it's so easy to let it be. And so worthwhile to not let it be. |
