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
