layers of learning

By knightmirror

i confess
we bear witness
to revelations unseen since


knowledge in childlike thoughts incense
reminded our souls with the realmlooped scents
of the healing fragrance
of innocence


lighting our way with lightning leaves leaving sense
in blueprints
to be gathered in tints


now that's intense


within this storm lie hidden hints
purified in a flamewhispered rinse


NOW THAT'S WORTH MORE
THAN DOLLARS AND CENTS


our means of defense arer far from worthless
on this side of the fence


who else is ready to assist
in this gift to exist


we reflect reflected reflective reflections reflecting


what we need
to knead
which is loves seed
abkle to defeat every level of greed


it's true we're blessed with the Shamans Creed


we shall grow
up not old


then show
our dedication won't slow
our goal to teach of a glow
crafted from a starbreath halo
interpreting instructions it was told
from the source that's in the know


wrapped in origami blessings inner fold
is the courage to reap what we sow


SO.....


lets sew up this hole
but not before we let go of every woe
in our storeroom of hail and snow
setting the intervals in the flow
of the tides of time from tomorrow


we accept these truths and follow
ideas some will find hard to swallow
or divulge outlooks looking out from behind the hollow
hallow stares that stole passion from imaginations marrow


it's capable to relearn from pieces of coal
once alive with smiles along this path "labled" narrow
listening to thunders testimony telling us to take hold


as serenity prepares to explode
it's lightening the load
as we're buying back mistakes we sold
returning to our rank and receiving a sliver of control
enough to make us feel whole

but
 it's one step closer to home
