Amenities Within
Though sorrows of today with lingerings of yesterdays
We all walk thru a valley within.
We've yet a journey to partake
We've yet a trial to attend.
So you must find the amenities within.
Be at peace with you, young or the old
Whatever you find yourself to be.
Hear the wisper of the wind, hear the life of the rain drop
Listen for the voices of a butterfly
It's wings will softly play you a song.
Yes enjoy the amenities within for money can't buy
Nor thieves can take
They belong to the peacefulness you must find inside.
Yes all these things today I have aready experienced
Maybe a vision within or maybe I created
Or maybe I felt the powers amenities hold within.
The winds blow so at ease at my window above
It's sounds emerging into my soul.....
I smell the moisture of rain
I feel it in the air
I feel such a calmness that fills my vains.
For now I'll forget the sorrows of today
I'll forget the lingerings of all yestersdays
For at this moment I'm captured
I'm captured by the amenities within.
