Oh, the want
To save the world
To make a mark
To leave it all
Better than it was.
Now,
A little self-reflection
On what constantly tugs and begs this:
To have an idea that feels so true
May exist most importantly for you.
I see…
What the world needs
Is that thing most true for me
To reignite the kindling
And grow the flame for all to see
The wonder deep, deep
Inside of me.
Perhaps…
The world is but a mirror
And I, too, for it
With everything connected
And nothing truly separate
When I see a lacking
All across the horizon
I simply peer within
And there, lacking, find it.
Wonder!
Awaken!
Stir within, that magic brew
Each moment, singing, beckons you
Every second brimming full
With nothing near predictable
All of it ever-passing
All the bliss and all the pain
In each high and low exists
Immeasurable gifts to be gained
If you only keep your noggin
Lifted to meet its gaze.
A note to self:
Never clutter or close your mind
But look up, down, left, and right
Present
To beauty in all things
As they are drifting,
Ever-shifting,
Passing,
Changing.
