The Game

Life is a game
But there are no winners
No losers
Just players
And it is how you play the game
That counts the most

Don't hesitate
Don't regret
Just keep moving on
Learning and living
Never stopping the game

Watch your step
You don't know what's next
No clues
Just surprises
And it is a quick response
That counts the most

Don't hesitate
Don't regret
Just keep moving on
Learning and living
Never stopping the game

Never stopping the game
Because if you do
The game will stop you

Like Children

We are like children
Trying to understand
A world far beyond us
Trying to make sense
Of the life we live
We understand so little
Yet act like we know
That which is unseen
And that we heard
That which was not said
We are but children
But we still must try
And have faith that someday
We will truly know
And truly be known

Wind and Trees

I did not recognize my shadow
Cast long across the land
Reaching far beyond
The land my eyes could see
And there the wind blew
Moving trees and leaves
Grass behind to its will
My shadow hanging over it
Slowly disappearing
Into the dark of night
But the trees and wind remain
It is I that changes

Here I Will Be

When I try to say I've been to busy
To write my thoughts
It makes me wonder
What do I have time for?
So I return to my writing
Realizing it is part of me
That helps me express thoughts
That helps me express feelings
That otherwise may stay trapped inside me
Begging to get out
With no where to go
So here I am
And here I will be

Proclaim Your Love

Sing to the heavens!
Let your voice be heard!
That you are loved
And that you love
Your voice will echo across the land
Your words will not fall on deaf ears
But will be felt by those in need
By those who need to hear them
And they will lift them up
And they will sing!
That they are loved
That they love
And their voice will echo across the land
And the chorus will continue
As long as you proclaim your love

Prepared Way

I was alone
There was no one to hear my words
As they echoed out
In the cold of night
I asked for direction
I asked for guidance
So I listened
And I spoke
As if I were before a crowd
And I kept listening
And I kept speaking
Until I had said
What I meant to say
But had been unable to put into words
And found my way
By listening
By learning
And I was ready
My way had been prepared
So I gave thanks
And left to face the night
And wait for the morning
