A New Reality
Grow old with me
And we shall surely see
The birth of a new society
Where love is spoken first
Evolving into beings
Of purity and grace
Where fear and deceit no longer
Draw lines upon our faces
When goodness as a river
Perpetually now run through us
We will deliver wisdoms’ gifts
Learned from life’s steely lessons
Where we calmly sail as children
Upon the sea of eternity
And patiently we wait to see
The distant land of hopes and dreams
And dream at night of peaceful things
The prints of nails
in hands and feet
Let yours be our new reality!
