There Must Be A Connection



There must be a connection between heaven and earth,
a solemn bifurcation of incredible mirth.

There must be a connection between heaven and dance,
a rhythmical reflection of vigorous romance.

There must be a connection between heaven and pets,
a spirited affection of vibrant silhouettes.

There must be a connection between heaven and blooms,
a fine fructification of flowering legumes.

There must be a connection between heaven and songs,
a melodic selection of tuneful sing-alongs.

There must be a connection between heaven and sight,
a dramatic collection of colorful delight.

There must be a connection between heaven and love,
a wonderful perfection of poignancy above.
