Labels are for fools, not for the wise
Play the familiar tune of in-unison serenity

"Blue Sky, Why?"

stories speak to us.
inside our heart 
is crying.

Her small angelic face ...

Once a place where broad smiles bloomed like butterflies on marigolds,
is streaked with the furrows that countless tears have etched into the

I feel much like trash
When I’m not earning cash
Can’t you see I’m working hard, Lord?
According to Your will, according to Your accord
I feel like I’m worthless

Peaceably, truly longing
To give praise to You entirely

decorative ostentatious
flirtatious lives taking risks
