What do I see

As I step out my front door

Grateful?

Nature reaching heights in beauty

That don’t come easy

Always

In some ways

We are spoiled like kids

Brilliant rewards but bitter battles

Starting low at the ground

Brave in the system

Each day we enjoy

And suffer

Only Peace and Love matters

**

What do I see

As I step into the world

Fateful?

Nature teaching rights in duty

That don’t come easy

Always

Surely, we are loyal to this

Resilient species

Even a natural rival

Hard to see like the wind

Built in the system

Each day fight or flight

We’re tougher

As for Peace and Love I fall

**

What do I see

As I step into the future

Labeled?

Nature preaching insight so moody

It won’t flow easy

Always

To understand we toil in fits

In millions of mirrors

Images of a martyr

Stand alone or are found

We are the system

Each day perception

Our buffer

Feeling makes Peace and Love smarter

**

What do I see

And What is the truth?

Because looks can be deceiving

*

What I hear

Is water lapping

against the shore

at the side of a lake

and it soothes

 *

Spirits embraced

Are not seen or known

We wander down

Truth isn’t shown

The enchanting sound

Is a flag that’s flown

Unfairly

**

All I see

Is driven by need

Energy flowing to or from it

 *

What we need

Is what we’re tapping

Feet on the ground

Won’t hide a mistake

That we choose

 *

Spirits displaced

That aren’t seen or known

Let’s clamber down

For truth to be shown

Admit and reach out

Specifically those

Unsparing

**

What do I see

As I live my life today

Grateful?

Nature reaching heights in beauty

That don’t come easy

Always

In some ways

Life is royal and rich

Filling finances and freezing feelings

Shunning those fallen down

Forgot by the system

Each day we enjoy

And suffer

Invest only in Peace and Love dealings
