Looking up through the lighted canopy
Green air floats everywhere
To feel the breeze against my face
With hope for life onward into vibrancy
Opportunity for expression with no restriction but my own
The hand of God to guide me
Into a world of the just
Gliding through the high and lows
Like a leaf upon a current
Warm breath of the world pushing on,
Experience grows concurrent
The trunk in essence tall and strong,
Wisdoms eye watches all around
Absorbs the form of all to create the being inside
Whose wants and needs are nothing great
Just merely needing life pure and simple
Hope, happiness, love and faith
Not much considering the whole human race
Puts so much more on material things
Which only encourage destruction of truth
And lead us down a path of wanton selfishness
Ohhh the green replenish me
I feel your cool embrace
Take my soul with you and fly among the clouds
Where the atmosphere is fresh and clear
And no defilement to stop us now
As one with the sky, light and vast
As open as nothing to be found
Upon this earth, all bound by dreams of
False security, laughable it is
The only place to find this hope
Is in your heart with God,
Right there is where He is
