(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
