from the garden,
echoes of a faded music
round the corner of forgetting
echoes of a faded music
round the corner of forgetting
the tapestry of being
unfurls before me,
as if it could be mine
and of my making
unfurls before me,
as if it could be mine
and of my making
and so I sing,
I sing to the beauties of being
and the words tumble out
like colored threads
to dazzle
and then
to darn themselves
into the warp and woof
of continuity
I sing to the beauties of being
and the words tumble out
like colored threads
to dazzle
and then
to darn themselves
into the warp and woof
of continuity
do I truly see,
or is it that I flow
as a thread among
the seas and seams?
or is it that I flow
as a thread among
the seas and seams?
from the garden,
echoes of a fading song
round of the corner of forgetting
echoes of a fading song
round of the corner of forgetting
perhaps I should enter there,
and follow
and follow
