Some One Good
It would do my soul some good
me thinks
to make a moving attempt
to find some touching words
join them together for emotive sentence
and bring forth a description
perchance some truthful acceptance
to stir and conjure the imagination
and ignite a deeper remembering
To write of the miracle that is you
your world, our world
so perfectly designed in the grandness of its scale
so consummate in intricacy
to manifest in its role
balance and harmony
of each and every cell, mote and star
would the complexity inside a simple tree leaf
define what and who you are
A mountain then
or an ocean
so teeming with its life internal
this microcosmic of the universal
holds you manifest
and through you the miracle lives
Should I write of sunrise and sunset
those colours in clouds and hue
or simply endeavour to interpret the poetry of a waterfall
should I stand with you beneath the midnight heavens
or marvel how delicately the rose bud opens
shall we look together into the eyes of our children
as they look all the way back into our hearts
their souls and their spirits so tranquil
their gaze so tender and so wide open
How does one encapsulate a miracle
the one which is constantly and effortlessly
surrounding us all
is it in the filaments of connective energy
passing between every created entity
or in the cognizance of the witnesses
this spark of consciousness holds you manifest
and through you the miracle lives
Will I fail in my literary attempting
to touch upon your purpose
fail to ignite your deepest knowing
I could tell you of the songs of the mist
its symphony playing across the stillness of early morning lakes
if I could picture all the wonders you have seen
in one single moment
all the lovers, friends, strangers and places you've been
would the miracle become more poignant
would it embrace you
wish so much for you
and in its essence only love you
you this witness of the eternal
this spark of consciousness holds you manifest
and through you the miracle lives
