Earth Rider
Welcome all,
Please take a seat,
Robin’s egg blue or bubblegum pink?
Seafoam green or sunflower yellow?
The choice is up to you.
The ropes will suspend you with the utmost care
As the carousel slowly spins.
Let your feet dangle,
Feel the breeze in your hair,
Breathe in deep,
Exhale your every care.
Offer a smile to an unknown friend,
We’re all on this ride together.
It stops now and then to let someone off,
Eventually it will for you.
But you needn’t worry, dear one,
For Mystery is at the wheel.
So play lightly and be still,
A gentle rock, a subtle sway,
As we walk each other home.
