Debbie Guzzi Poet Lyric

And Yet We Ask For More

Musical interlude

Beneath the sky a majesty
of nature all unending
are vistas of great clarity
and insight transcending.

If we would only see
those precious gifts from Thee
all life in mystery
the sky, the earth, the sea.

And yet we ask for more?

Break..music

There need not be a higher plane
for what we have's a rarity
the sun the moon the stars above
are gifts of great prosperity.

If we would only see
the precious gifts from Thee
all life in mystery
the sky, the earth, the sea.

Oh dare we ask for more?

Break Music

Joe Maverick February 13, 2012 at 12:51 AM Enjoyed the lines you have posted here Debbie,, and how are you feeling..?

Michelle Mac Donald February 11, 2012 at 2:57 PM This is beautiful, Debs! I got shivers reading it with the music; as though it was stoking my soul and spirit. The tone and lyrics are softly upending...so true, "oh dare we ask for more?". This puts me in quiet and thoughtful mode. Thanks for sharing! Love, Mikki

Cyndi Macmillan February 11, 2012 at 2:05 PM Gorgeous. I enjoy this type of music, as well. Is that a dulcimer? Or a harp? I loved "insight transcending" the most. Hope you are keeping busy but not too busy. If interested, you may like to check out my blog on editing. I'd love to hear your take on free verse, as you write it so well. Hugs, Cyndi
