I Hear the Voice
I hear the voice
In which nature calls to me.
I hum along
With the tune it sings
I read the poem
Which it has written to me –
--to me alone…
So many voices,
Coming together,
Sounding as one.
The collaborative effort
Of INSPIRATION
Is at work.
I am searching…
Searching for morning…
The birth of a new day.
I AM.
…but what am I?
To be accepted,
Must I conform
To a label—
--Merely a word?
Time flows forever on,
And on…
Never letting go,
Never catching up,
Always counting toward THE END
Of every endless day.
I catch glimpses of
Reds, Oranges and Yellows.
Leaves.
Blowing in the breeze.
This is what is real.
(Not those fake,
pasted on expressions
given to you by your
ignorant "peers.")
This is tangible, concrete…
…Beautiful…
Oh, what you can see,
When you open your eyes,When you finally accept
that You are not
The Center
Of the Universe.
