Let's play
Let's play while no white noise
clouds our imagining ears.
Let's sing while our voice is pure
and crystal tones captivate us.
I dance to your fluid sound
as creative energy inspires.
I dance to living natures fire
that burns bright in our hearts.
Take the wreckage of our world
and paint a beautiful melody.
Take the order out of noise
to make time and music flow.
Let's carve out keys of images
In wondrous silken folds.
Let's wait for patient meaning
to pacify the songs of love.
JAX 11/14
