Have you ever wondered
Why a river is pulled towards the sea
But the ocean crashes against the rocks
How the sun smiles
But the moon weeps
How the trees whisper in the breeze
But argue emotion  in the wind

Have you ever considered
How minutes pass us by
But time stands still when in love
Why the tears of angels fall
But in praise voices are raised to heaven
How death is a passing
But is the gift of life reborn

i could stare at the sky
for hours
watching the changes
and movements of clouds
dreaming
imagining
that all is good
all is simple
love embraces us
a laughing child
birds in song
the twinkling of chimes in the trees
all offer comfort
and together
it feels like a warm tap on the back
i could hide in these sounds
staring at the sky
imagining a place
so far from here.
