Creating You
Creating You
Can a book change your life;
Make you feel in a different way?
Can it open up a world;
That did not exist until that day?
Can a poem heal your heart;
As if the poet felt your pain?
So you read it many times;
But no two times was it the same?
Can a painting make you dream;
Of places you long to travel to?
And make you appreciate the landscape;
Of the world surrounding you?
Can a song inspire a memory;
From days of many years ago;
And once again you find yourself;
And your age no longer shows?
Can a garden grow more than plants;
Within the spirit eternal?
Where what the gardener tends to;
Is a harvest more internal.
Can the beauty that you create;
Develop into a spiritual journey?
You may never truly know;
Until you make it your decree.
