For the Place I'M At!
Ring of bright water
surrounds me
Sun off water,throwing diamonds at me
heat of sun,
jewels blind me
This far off situation,
is to my taste,
my imagination,my creation,
nothing goes to waste
Breath of warm wind fans me,
hmmmm,suits me ,you see
I have nothing here,
but that's nothing to fear,
for in this place, nothing is first prize
second is,meanness,vindictiveness and lies
That comes as no surprise,
to the wise
For the place I'm at ,
is more that big enough to swing a cat
Come join me,
for you will soon see
That the sun throwing diamonds at me ,
makes me richer than you'll ever know,
because I have the love of you
and it makes me wealthy so.
But people find that hard to see
They are blind
in the land of plenty
Warm wind fans the naked me,
body and soul
for all to see
But I'm richer than thee
for the things I care,
belong in the place I'm at
Where are you?
Struggling in the old world too?
Come and join me,
for you will see,
that you will be richer
than in the blind land of plenty
For I'm in the place I'm at !
