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.
