Layers of Learning
i confess
we bear witness
to revelations unseen since
knowledge in childlike thoughts incense
reminded our souls with the realmlooped scents
of the healing fragrance
of innocence
lighting our way with lightning leaves leaving sense
in blueprints
to be gathered in tints
now that's intense
within this storm lie hidden hints
purified in a flamewhispered rinse
NOW THAT"S WORTH MORE
THAN DOLLARS AND CENTS
our means of defense are far from worthless
on this side of the fence
who else is ready to assist
in this gift to exist
we reflect reflected reflective reflections reflecting
what we need
to knead
which is loves seed
able to defeat every level of greed
it's true we are blessed with the Shamans Creed
we shall grow
up not old
then show
our dedication won't slow
our goal to teach of a glow
crafted from a starbreath halo
interpreting instructions it was told
from the source that's in the know
wrapped in origami blessings inner fold
is the courage to reap what we sow
SO....
lets sew up this hole
but not before we let go of every woe
in our storeroom of hail and snow
setting the intervals in the flow
of the tides of time from tomorrow
we accept these truths and follow
ideas some will find hard to swallow
or divulge outlooks looking out from behind hollow
hallow stares that stole passion from imaginations marrow
it's capable to relearn from pieces of coal
once alive with smiles along this path "labeled" narrow
listening to thunders testimony telling us to take hold
as serenity prepares to explode
it's lightening the load
as we're buying back mistakes we sold
returning to our rank and receiving a sliver of control
enough to make us feel whole
but it's one step closer to home
