Visionary Blues

A snowflake
A tear
A drop of rain
such things flow
deep into the heart
     Let's not regret
          the omnipresent 
clock
   Rather we should 
let our visions come 
   and free us
from daily drudgery
Only a small boat
    in a vast ocean
of stars
    We must cling 
to this planet
    Touch the sky above
    Feel the incipient 
power
     that lies 
beneath the surface 
of our actions
    We can't see 
how it all ends
    So we might 
as well take 
  pleasure in 
phenomena - both large and small
   Time has it's gifts to bestow
We're waiting........

I will join you in that beautiful thought, and simply enjoy the many gifts bestowed upon us, as much as I can, while I can. Kind of makes me think of the song Don't worry Be happy. Love, Shar
