dancing in verse


dancing in verse


a brilliant fool
who went to school
to learn the lesson self
a masterful mind
yet never did find
the key to untold wealth

before his eyes
beyond surmise
yet beyond the now-ness of pleasure
were simple things
songs all hearts sings
and that is life’s only treasure

the hidden smile
yet to be defiled
shadowing the face of the people
yet we run to the alter
we stumble, we falter
what’s sought is not in the steeple

we continually ponder
where’s grace we wonder
has Source turned His back on us
if you believe this so
i must let you know
the key is in what you trust

let all hearts think of
naught but our love
and perhaps one day we will see
that the people are one
Source Will be done
submit to love and be free

so in life’s school
do not be fooled
to think that we are apart
for truth be told
the Hand of Great Soul
is that which fashioned all hearts

dancing in verse
