Analysis of Our love of life
Charles Fields II 1955 (Fort Bragg, NC)
With relativity as written in raindrops.
As revolving patterns of being
with DNA working miracles
Through the mystery of life
performing the dance
we do of our will and calling,
as we build
a future between us
shaped by an ancient hand
with an unseen vision
lit by a glimmer of hope
throughout our lives
as we struggle to understand
our love of life
and the things we do
which define our will to live
As catalysts of a living sand
we dance upon a stage
Creating a mosaic
that’s forever being portrayed...
Against an ever changing view
as we sing our song
We play our part
as sparks of living energy
Becoming a part of the landscape,
as we sing the song of love
and if flowers of life bearing fruit
Our aural echoes dance on astral planes
Written into forever
even as we are passing in review
with a pulse of waves within
in constant ebb and rise
as we relate to one another
with our emotions given life
or are we cast adrift
as leaves tossed by the winds
churning our emotions
while adrift on starlight tides
reflecting of our most treasured moments
spent lost and found
in those thoughts nearest,
dearest to our hearts
Most buoyant on our minds,
converging into a flow, as friends
gently pouring our emotions into a quiet stream
Seemingly unbound by space or time
So calm serene where passions flow
In these loving dreams of being
Of all we know…
Our love of life
