Una Vez

once upon a time i was
fulfilled in heart and soul
but now i know not what to do
i have no earthly goal.
the only clue i have of it
is where i feel GOD's hand;
those places where he pushes me
"what is it YOU command?"
i sit here waiting for the word,
for inspiraciĆ³n
and missing the stability of
a past relaciĆ³n

i walk on down the path of life
and pick up scattered stones
and dance among the wildflowers
admiring chosen tones.
HE was creative with HIS work
i notice every day
i long to be a blade of grass
and to the earth obey.
to be a leaf, a tree, a bud
to anchor to the dirt;
connected to the green of life
would be of great comfort.

needing to be needed now
and longing to belong
be rooted with those worldly roots
and sing life's lovely song
