Life Begets Life
Oh dawn of splendor
life begets life
and the morning fresh dew of the day,
floods all of the senses
removing barriers and fences
leaving not much at all in your way.
Radiance shines
life begets life
future's oracle rises up on the curve,
harmony's the best ride
but still some things collide
which only happens to strengthen your nerve.
The noonish air feels so full
and life begets life
and with this energy the cauldron gets stirred,
but with every bubble
all are allowed to taste trouble
and many of our boundaries get blurred.
The cool of the night
life begets life
so full the day has become of the dark,
the day clears room to give
so the shadows can live
both transitions we need to embark.
Rest 'til the 'morrow
life begets life
toil if you must for your plot,
Say all that you will
be sure to get your fill
and drink it up, with all that you've got.
Life's circle is met
as life begets life
the possibilities all come into view,
we're all legacy bound
solid proof's all around
we receive back what all of us do.
