I Asked

I asked the spirit why it was blue And it smiled and replied “Blue holds the truth” I asked the dove why it was so white And it replied, “So that all may see the light” I asked the moon why it was so cool And it continued to spin… I asked the Saint Bernard to walk the dog And it began to dance I asked the horse to whinny And it did, as the pony pranced… I asked the family; why do you love me And they replied, “Because you’re you” I asked myself: "How came I to be so blessed” And the answer came --you have followed The path pursuing The Truth shining And so I kept quiet Because every thing was perfect So glad I asked…
