(Listen to "Bloom")

Bloom

 

You plant yourself a seed, ‘cause you know it’s got potential

To deliver what you need, but to sow it is essential:

A little bit of sunshine, a little bit of thunder

A little bit of un-tying, ripping it asunder

Digging in the earth to cultivate a plot

Keeping up the mirth when the plan is all but shot

Toil you may and toil you might

Soil by day is soil by night

Depressing thoughts encroach, but you’re keeping up the attitude

Addressing the approach, you’re leaping up with gratitude

Gracious to the spirit and to the mysteries

(Feeling) spacious when you’re near it and the rest’ll be a breeze
Cause you never do know what that flower’s gonna look like:

Straight it maybe grows, or maybe it’ll hook-like

But first you get a stem and then you get a bloom

And then and then and then… well, the rest is coming soon
