Life in Time

Sing for me a bedtime song One that puts me, in peace to sleep Let life smooth over all past that’s wrong So tomorrow’s days safe keep. And I will work to swab, clean the decks Let dirt's fly free, up, away So my life provides fresh landing fields For kind peace to land and stay. And when it’s time for Me too to go Kind peace then sets me Free Letting trade winds softly... take me home Evermore contented free, to be. Until higher wisdom sets back in Curiosity plays it’s hand To set me off on another ride Just a player in the band. Whose leader’s call has woke me up Hey, a new song to learn to sing So diverse life too refreshes it’s Self With new decks needed to clean. And who else to call, bringing kind peace again But an old deck swabber like me Who creates, then cleans the dirt that sticks to wood So kind peace has a place to be.
