Stars trickle down my knees

Colored spirals glitter down my toes

I watch the world through eyes

I smell the sea by nose

I’m wishing there were no reason for a dream

That everything would be as easy

To find as the stars running down my legs,

As the colored spirals at my feet.

Somewhere beneath the wood

Is life

Somewhere in the world

Is right

Somewhere safe from termites on the go

I’m wishing there would be no sorrow

I’m wishing for another tomorrow

Dreaming a dream I should not have to hope for

In a life

Where nothing should have to be asked for

But where glory is just as great

And the birds meet for a chirp now and then

As the sun meets for a talk with the sky

At sunset or the break of day.
