Heart Beat
.
Everything in this world
plays its own music
or at least a beat
the mountains shout out
and the echoes play tag
with flowers cut from scraps
in mother’s rag bag
a stitch in time she’d say to me
saves nine as i clambered on her knee
a stitch in time… mends a broken heart
and the cape robin on my window sill
sings his soul out fit to burst
filling mine to overflowing with His song

Lift me up on the crest of the wave,
Let me ride home safe to the shore,
The joy I feel when I am borne,
Weightless on the water,
Will be with me evermore.
The music of the sea does not falter,
The song of the sea does not fade,
As I hold the conch shell to my ear
The echo of the sea remains.

I think there’s a link between the sunrise
and the blue skies and the birds’ cries.
When I lie in bed I can hear when the sky is clear…
The raucous cries of the larger birds tear me from my sleep,
while the smaller chirps and cheeps try their hardest to compete ~
all this in the darkest night before the sun even shows himself awake ~
but I know, I can tell, a beautiful day awaits.
In the same way, when the birdsong is muted
and the screams have lost their harshness,
I know, I can feel, that a gentle day is in the offing,
perhaps with showers and a softening in the air.
How can any deny our Father when the proof is always there
and nature sings His praises for all the world to hear?
Are we ‘accidental’ beings and our world a chance MIS-take?
It’s preposterous to think that this could be the case!

Sidey’s Weekend Theme – 23.09.2011: Feet
~
I’ll sing you a song
To paint a smiley face
And you’ll sing along
To make this a happy place
~
We’ll clap our hands
And infect the whole world
As the beat of our feet
Makes the sound on the ground
Echo deep through the land
~
I’ll sing you a song
To paint a smiley face
And you’ll sing along
To make this a happy place
~

& for the latecomers:
A Song in my Head
There’s a song in my head
And it won’t go away – not today.
There’s a song on my brain
And it’s making me insane:
The notes just evolve and revolve
In a never-ending wheel,
Around and around, ‘til I find
I can’t get them out of my mind.
The end and the start
Are embedded in my heart
And the tune is so great
That it’s hard to think straight.
An inspired melody
With spontaneous harmony,
Forever restrained
In the confines my brain.
