The heart smiles
Upon crystal streams
Of life
And loss
Of learning
And, turning rivers
We must choose
To bravely cross

Let the spirit
Drift and soar
Let channels
Of choice
Flow with sunrays
That shine
And burst
Glow, with 
A passionate thirst!

Let pathways
Of trust
Build and mend
The bridges
That have
Begun to rust
Those we have
Unknowingly
Broken and lost

Have naively
Buried in patches
Of forgotten
Earth, where
Treasure chests
Are found
Deep within
The ocean’s
Hidden surf

Oh, to life and love
And the celebration
Of all that speaks
To the highest
Divinity above!
