It's A Long Way To Paradise
It's a long way to paradise
From here.
On sunny days I open my eyes
Breathing air
Flowers in my hair
Music in my ears.
On clouded days
I dance in the rain
Marvel at rainbows,
Those things ordained
Beauty, perceptive order
Drunk on love.
Summer days, I've saved a few
Pictures of Neverland
A sketch or two.
Life is neither easy, or hard.
Just a tool.
A plow to turn under
Yesterdays thoughts,
A fishnet to catch the future thoughts,
A pen and paper to write tomorrows news,
A mirror so I might see you
In my eyes too.
