A Day a Life To Grow
A day to wake, a day to make, a day a life to grow,
born from dreams of many things where living fed a soul,
in light of sun, in dark of night where breath of dream is told
to linger, lurk in search of ones who dare to be so bold.
In sipping thought of color from a flower, fruit, or tree,
so as to bid them sustenance from what cannot be seen,
in hopes of finding those who search it out from their own need,
allowed to grow for what it can and hopes to truly be.
A day to wake, a day to make, a day a life to grow,
born from dreams of many things where living fed a soul,
in warming breads, earthly brown, in wheat spun from sun's gold,
to nourish mind from feebleness and body keeping whole.
While casting light from eager eyes into the sky above,
reflecting back the joys found as life sought for its love,
with feathered birds, stirring winds that pushed and often shove
a quiet mind beyond its border to places 'er heard of.
On castle clouds where kings looked down eager to implore,
a child-like heart to trust in them to steer it safe to shore,
a day to wake, a day to make a day a life to grow,
born from dreams of many things where living fed a soul.
