ETERNAL AS A DREAM
I’m six, I’m sixteen, I’m sixty, I’m six hundred
And have millenniums to live
In a paper wing, a sand castle, a leaf of grass
All the ephemeral things there are.
I’ll live more than life allows
Much more than life can last
I’ll live so exceedingly that nothing will have an end
I’ll live so deeply, so high, so near and so far
Until all the voyages are made complete
Here, there, within and beyond…
You are the newborn
You are the ancient dreamer
You’re a grain of sand, a drop of water
The blowing wind, the path on the clouds
An invisible hand with dancing petals
You close my eyes to see the new world within
I open my eyes to find myself in your genesis
My eyes are sunflowers greeting the sun
You open my eyes to see the new day
I close my eyes and mingle
Amongst the wonders of creation
Here, there, within and beyond…
