Is Infinity
~
Is infinity
Just a moment of beauty
Within all to see
~
For
~
Beauty lives and dies
In the moment of an eye
Then we sit and cry
~
But
~
Eternity stands
Where infinity expands
In the eye and hand

The Infinity of Time
A concept of the human mind
Just like the measurement of rhyme
For you create the world you find
Where upon grows the living vine
And therefore flows the mortal wine
~
If you could travel back in time
The one thing you would never find
Would be your life with the same old rhyme
But something of a different kind
Where upon grows the living vine
And therefore flows the mortal wine
~
Because every moment in time
Of every church bell that chimes
Of every grain of sand so fine
Is a whole universe Divine
At one with the immortal vine
And therefore flows the mortal wine
~
Each opportunity you see
Of endless possibilities
Is because each moment is free
In it's own cosmos that you see
Part of an endless living vine
And therefore flows the mortal wine
~
Faith creates it's own reality
And hate it's own depravity
And depression it's own poverty
And love creates it's own beauty
All part of the one living vine
And therefore flows the mortal wine
~
In everything you say and do
You create the cosmos anew
With life of all possible forms
Will have a place to be the norm
To be with one the living vine
And therefore flows the mortal wine
~
For everything it must be true
Even the early morning dew
Will see the light of it's own dawn
Upon a never ending lawn
That falls upon the living vine
And therefore flows the mortal wine
~
For if the cosmos was not so
Nature would not diverse and grow
Distant stars would not burn and glow
Human hearts would not yearn to know
The secret of the living vine
That overflows with mortal wine
~
And the cosmos would not expand
And man would not hold in his hand
A chance to try and understand
That it's within God's mind we stand
Just grapes upon the living vine
And therefore flows the mortal wine.

Such a lonely cloud.
Such a lonely cloud
Gray sunlit, lovely and proud
But only a should
~
Beyond right or wrong
On the breeze like a sad song
Then forever gone
~
But for that moment
All of creation was spent
And all beauty sent
~
So life could expand
Within the eye and the hand
For their infinity and
Eternity stands,
~
It's own centre vowed
Within the light of a cloud
All life is endowed.

To wish upon a star
That is so very far
Is not so very mad
Whether happy or sad
In all faith you will find
Something gentle and kind,
Just like the sun and rain
Or even joy and pain.
We were made in the stars
And we have come so far
To look back in the night
On reflection of light
That is part of the whole
Of every living soul.
A never ending flow
That makes the Cosmos glow
With the light of the stars
And the life that is ours.

As the sunsets on a thousand regrets.
On a thousand regrets
In a veil of golden red
For the things I never said
~
Like tears without a trace
Or a man without a race
My heart begins to pace
Just to look upon her face
~
I never seen her part
Or heard her footsteps in the dark
And I never said good-bye
But I will love her till I die
~
And as the shadows grow
Upon my weary soul
I guess, I will never know
Why I loved her so.
~
In the early morning twilight
When the stars fade out of sight
Before the sun begins its flight
Across the sky so bright.
~
I will say a prayer for you
For the little girl I knew
And I will not be blue
For the day will begin anew.

Did we recognize the Son
But did we recognize the Son
In the starving mob
And in the aborted blob
~
In the dying child
And in the mother's cries, wild
In the enemy's face
Or the anemone's grace
~
In the wild flowers
And the wide open bowers.
All life comes about
Out of nature's lack of doubt
~
For the sun does rise
On the ignorant and wise
On the great mountains
And the descending fountains.
~
But will the sunset
On knowledge without regret,
If we never come
To see everything as one.
