Reflections

Reflections

The silence in the virgin grove
the scent of flowers and shafts of light
will propel us ever further
down the lush pathways of life

The world has many paths to take
that go so many places
we see so many different things
So many hopeful faces

At times we lose our footing
and get lost among the trees
and darkness soon takes over
and brings us to our knees

We cannot find the pathway out
we missed it long ago
The world is now a dreary place
with nowhere left to go.

Its only when we're on our knees
we'll see heaven appear
and look into that hallowed place
the answer in the mirror

Although we may not know it
Heaven's always in our path
Waiting for us to notice
And see it there at last

Sometimes in our quest to choose
our path upon the ground
we must look up into the sky
to find our way around
