Laced Destiny in Pearl
she opened my eyes
to a wonderful world,
gave me life lessons
in memories of pearl
in giving me wings
so I could fly too
she gave me her spirit
and I never knew
she said I could climb
that hill over there,
she told me to hurry
with time it would wear
the roads of the plant
wove into her face
now I walk them to find
a steady calm pace
with the days of life
not waiting for me,
I cant waste a second
before flying free
so I took out my wings
and I'm dusting them off
cause time passed me by
and somehow I forgot
the best of my life
is somewhere ahead
with this rhyme I promise
your spirit is fed
I wont be remembered
in the history of words,
but my spirit will fly
on the wing of jaybirds
and as your presence
starts coming back,
I live in a memory
hung with lace and lilac
