Drop by drop earth renewal
feeding as if starved
unfolding into newness
green
Inch by inch slowly growing
reaching as if to the sky
blooming under sunshine
purple
One to many spreading quilt
tiny grapes on stalks of green
scented perfume lingers
hyacinth

Everything is always slipping
slowly quickly like vapors of life
people who slip in and out
hours that slip slow and fast
Children that grow into men
time has no meaning
it’s just a human measure
because everything is still slipping
In constant motion our lives
always moving forward
everything slipping
while we stand and watch
To remember that we die only once
yet live every day
do so before all we know
is slipping away

The steps at first small and unsure
and all at once it becomes a blur
loving living sharing your soul
giving taking losing control
Each step on the journey more of the heart
loving together tearing apart
the push the pull always in motion
following the road whatever the notion
It is not the destination or the end
but to our hearts the journey does lend
growing losing becoming ever more
no step that comes like the ones before
The journey teaches reaches breaks molds
never knowing what the future holds
never regret remember always seeking what is true
this journey called life for me and you
