In Pursuit
In Pursuit In pursuit I chased but In got disengaged from the ordering of my mind. I looked for a sign it did not come so my sign I made But ended up dismayed When my sign led to a dead end. I ran and ran then ran some more to find a home secure but instead I ran through an open door and ended up on a desolate moore! Then from the corner of my eye now here's my sign though I but look here it was a big black fly! So now I roam far from home my pursuit now quite noisome.
It Feels Good
It Feels Good I remember when I use to dream about heaven What a glorious place it would be. Life was really rough then rejected I could not see the end of the commotion of that life. But now I sit in joy I feel the warmth of my belonging. I have few good friends, true love that will never end and trust me It feels good. That dream is no longer far I don't have to wish upon a star I can sit under this Julie mango tree watch the coconut leaves sway in the evening breeze knowing I have been blessed. And though it still tough, since I never gave up, I live to know each day that life, it feel so good.
This Thorne
This Thorn It is perfect This thorne in my side at first I denied to smile Through this thorn in my eyes. The wait is long now I cannot see my hope grew strong. So to God I sing a new song Now I know where I belong. Since I surrendered I can sense this great love the plans I had for me no longer convinces me Now it is His great plan that qualifies me.
Your Walk
Your Walk When you begin your walk, you will know who you are, you will be who you are, and give of who you are. When you begin your walk, the least will be great in your heart, you will forget your fairy dreams and live in your steps, real dreams. When you begin your walk, you will know when to wait and do what must be done, before it is too late. When you begin your walk, you will honour those at your gate, for they are your fate, they will make you great. For to build them up is to be graced with an overflowing plate.
Caterpillar to a Butterfly
Caterpillar to a Butterfly Look at me move whoa I move so fast. No one can stop me now. I believe I can fly. nimbly I move from tree to tree Oh my this is sweet! I eat all day, everyday and there is nothing you can say. I am a master an expert you see There is nothing better than what I am called to be. But suddenly I get tired and must rest. So in my cocoon I make my nest. But as I wake look up and stretch I feel my body has reset! Where once I was long and around glory be! That catterpillar cannot be found! In its place I now have wings! And guess what? They flutter, flop and sing. Now I can move at lightening speed Oh this is so much more fun! Oh yes indeed this is a dream!
This is Your Healing
Cry fall and break. Lie still and shatter but keep going. Wallow in the mud so you don't drown. Never stop swimming you don't need fins not wings you just need to keep moving. missteps do not dismiss your steps. Get it together and wipe your tears. Then go again.
