Will Thy Spirit Walk Such a Well Lit Path
Will Thy Spirit Walk Such A Well Lit Path
Can thee see the red warmth in the bright rose
glimmering in majestic, mystical hues.
Feel great magnificent beauty from head to toes
give Nature fully her true rightful dues?
Will thy spirit walk such a well lit path,
softly step and see rainbows before rain.
Abandon deep pride and its oft vengeful wrath
find in future promise the world to gain?
Should life present thee with easier gold?
Cast thee wealth and manna from above?
Let not wicked greed make thy heart too bold,
for such tragedy oft destroys true love!
If thee can see rainbows in life's dark droughts
thy life can prosper despite worst of bouts.
