Search For Harmony Island
(a sequel to The Whispers of Light)
twelve mountains I would climb
to view the dreams, beyond the sea
but I became lost, in mists of time
and realised, this was not my destiny
descending, I came upon a barren land
and finding the lord of darkness
on a perhaps, that I might understand
the way of being, to be more than less
searching, for somewhere to go
to find that somewhere, I can grow
searching, for the end of sorrow
to find that someone who will know
alas the stories, were of the free
who were sourcing the wars of wrath
having extracted all life from the sea
it became unclear which was the path
so I checked the rivers, bursting with souls
but devoid was knowledge of destiny
just data flowing, in armies of trolls
all looking for reasons to disagree
keep searching for somewhere to go
to find that somewhere, I can grow
keep searching for the end of sorrow
to find that someone who will know
fearful of meeting a darkest hour
I came upon a man who was whole
he said love and giving was the power
and harmony island should be my goal
I rested a while, under a willow tree
in rustling leaves, were whisperings
listen to the story of a green eternity
if you want to know how love sings
this too said harmony island was the place
where the one is, who will help me grow
and when finding this sweetness and grace
share with the one, who I will know
as the wars raged on all around
splitting the river, an island I could see
there seemed no blood on the ground
is this the place of sweet harmony
bathed in the colour of a rainbow
sweet purple singing, surely I could hear
whatever is on the island, I must know
as my heartbeat shifts into another gear
have I found this somewhere to go
is this the place where I can grow
have I found the end of sorrow
will I find someone who will know
harmony island, take me there
I have love to share today
into the rainbow I must dare
harmony island, I am on my way
