My dream is like a journey
to the moon
where i can enjoy the timelessness
of my being
...
Where the ganges meet the nile it creates a rainbow of cultures under the sky
like the twin island of trinbago the mirror contains the same copy and dye
from the carnival unto the street to the parade of powder behind the square
what deep togetherness exist in the schools where the same knowledge they share
...
As the rivers and lakes need the clouds to reach the shore
so too wisdom and faith gives us the strength to lead us furthermore
when we examine how the plants need the sunlight to grow
we must recognize that the silence within gives us a brilliant glow
...
Showers of pearls, showers of love
dreams from the clouds brought down from above
like a rainbow flowers blossom to attract the butterfly
the mirror in the ocean reveal the lamps n the sky
...
before a seed be gift with life it must first be plough into earth
for the soul to enter the cell of a human being
it must mirror one's purpose of birth
unknowingly the pathway of the future
