blindly seeing what’s to face
opening up to the reasons why
we can believe in this human race
throwing petals from dead roses
with those misty memories of yesterday
lighting candles in your name
reaching deep to Find God
as the fuel to motivate
there is a wind that carries me
to reach finish line
yet I’m not sure where that is
and what happens there
i can’t define
so here is life
offered up to live
and all it takes
is to be here now
to give it all you’ve got
and bless the rest somehow
let it bring forth that Buddha smile
it all will sort itself out in a while
and then we can reflect
if we did our best
and figure out
what it all meant anyhow
