"Over the threshold of always"

Reaping the Rainbow for Sherry As we sow so shall we reap They say And I hope it is true Since if it is I have already Reaped the bitter and am ready For the better to come due May the promises we keep Today Lovingly like seeds of now Our openness to be and do Our uttermost somehow The works of love we do and are Never fade away That each spark of our light of life in spring Ignite its happy ever aftering To warm hard winter days When the light is black and white all night Reflecting and refracting through From over the threshold of always If what they say is right Where beyond the shadow of doubt between The rainbow is blooming from this side unseen As we are reflecting and refracting too Being and doing as me and you The works of love we do and are Our uttermost hoping to be as it does Making it better hoping it stays Better because you were and I was I know you know I know what you mean And if you do not remember You know I know you know that I mean To reap April in December Or after others reap at least to glean And find myself like a fallen star It is always the end of the world Because that is where we start Where the living end of time lies curled Like the tail of a cat the leading edge Of time where what was and what is part The ribbon we open the present by As the paradox and privilege Of those who are and who will be At the end of the world like you and me To open the present as we live and die When all else leaves us love is what stays Where the shadow of doubt believing between Reveals the rainbow blooming unseen Over the threshold of always I found myself in the map of your skin Traced through my fingers And written in your hand Receiving the rainbow Blooming because you were and I was And now I understand Believing what cannot be known At the end of the world where we begin Receiving the seeds of now we have sown Reaping the rainbow again and again Over the threshold of always This is what lingers Love is what stays +Steven Curtis Lance Copyright MMX
