Fish In a Small Pond
Out in the
wilderness
a small pond
exists
It's shores are overgrown
with vegetation
Bullfrogs sing their songs
while fish move
gracefully under the
surface
Though we're only fish in this small
pond
as we extend
our minds and souls
outward into the star - lit
sky
We need not be frightened
As we rise to the surface
we'll touch the
glowing embers
of fallen stars
The woods beyond are
dark and deep
but let's remember joy is
there for us to keep
With the moon above
and earth below
Let's enjoy summer and
fall
Before the land is covered
with snow
Though we're far from fields and farms
We can sing with a voice that charms
To the West lies our destiny
We'll continue our struggle to be free
