Analysis of Miracle Grow

Stephen Knox 1970 (Bygland)



Deep in the upside, on Christ’s overlook.

Words come like songs, from a pre-written book.

Connecting of senses, feeling harmonious love.

Plunging in deeper, seeing something above.

The center path leads up, as far as it goes.

Accessing all, that the universe knows.

When coming back out, the trick is you see.

Maneuvering new feelings, to maintain harmony.

This rapid evolution, creating thoughts from the heart.

Assisting convergence, in which we all play our part.

Focus not on, whether good or bad fall.

We all go together, or none go at all.

Forgiving yourself, and feeling the grace.

spiritually evolving, the whole human race.
