Yes I Can

Yes I can tell that action sells;
Now cast a spell just where thought dwells.


Yes I can see that passion flings;
Now let things be what time will bring.


Yes I can feel that purpose hurls;
Now let time heal what burdens swirl.


Yes I can sense that presence here;
Now free from tense, just swallow cheer.


Yes I can float away in dreams;
Now harshness gloats to taunt my schemes.


Yes I can stay upon the way;
Now stretch and play in rhymes that stray.


Yes I know why drama is blind;
Now hear sad cries that seek true finds.
