Miracle

Miracle It's a long way from Heaven Such a long way to fall And the ground is the place Where things shuffle and crawl Where once there was safety And the comfort of love Now freedom , it seems Takes a maternal shove As the bird flies the nest. As the savanna calls. We must join with the rest For the fame of those halls For our story, unique To be told at the fire-side We must choose to compete Not just sit at the ringside All of that said Though survival is key There has to be more here For you and for me.. So ponder on this As you set on your journey There's so much to miss So much wonder and beauty Every step is miraculous Life's oasis, our drink The distance from Heaven Not as far as you think So stop in your wandering. Survey all that there is.. The vista, the creatures, All the gifts that are His Every blessing and favour Every smile, every breath There's a life that's worth living From our birth to our death If the journey is short Or the journey is long Hum your own tuneful music Write the words to your song Though the wilderness beckons And the life ahead scary Soon your legs will be strong As you master this prairie And when all of the stuff That you learn on the way Finds a home and a purpose You will look back and say.. That nothing was wasted Every stumble was gifted So the next generation is Encouraged and lifted. Jinjagoliath 6th August 2021
