We are so lucky

We are so lucky

Have you ever seen a golden orb of light

Fly over a blue vastness to the evening star?

Some have only seen the painful hand of time

Luminous in its awful sign, breaking minutes.

 

Have you ever heard white-alloyed waves of foam

Wet a ridge of sand and then retreat from land?

Some have only heard the loud silence of a child

Connected to their hearts in lonely waiting hours.

 

Have you ever loved, or is it fair to ask,

And built a Heaven on for more than one?

Some have only loved their self-puffed dreams,

A privilege to dissolve before the years.

Be safe,

Those of us who have known love [as giver and receiver] -- we are so lucky! That is truly what lasting dreams are made of.
