The Dream
We touch our skin in shades of gold
the light of flames warms us
our eyes draw fire from the horizon
and reflect to us a mirror world
of no possessions but only what is given
a chant, a song relieved of burden
paradise lies before us
a lush array of colours
teeming with the gift of life
the voices of our hearts whisper soft
the dream of dreams to which we surrender
forever echoes beneath our skin
we sleep connected
but live alone
The Light
Tell me tales of past lives
unveil to me what was lost
where paradise ended and this began
tell me tales of divine harmony,
when nature light as our universe
gifted us with grace
to lift ourselves from darkness
and illuminate our hearts
Tell me of the soft whisper
that turned into a breeze
and ended in a storm
tell me of the wind
that dimmed our light
and gave us a darkness
foreboding the blight
The Life
Guide me forth
world forgotten in whispers
bring news of death and the new life
for them I suffer
for them I am alive
for them I live this life
guide me forth
forgotten word
I told the truth
now let me lie
dare I dream
of paradise
