Arte Soy

I roam alone through parts unknown
But in my heart lies a cornerstone
And day after day, the finer I hone
My compass of love for to make you moan,
“Come home, beloved, come home”

Baby, I’ve got trouble all over town
So please don’t take it too hard
If I don’t turn this thing around
I’ll be America’s Most Wanted bard

Do us a favor, listen to me
Forgive, let live, and set us both free
We’ll sing together like you know we should
“My cup runneth over and it feels so good”

Of folly, by golly, I’m guilty as can be
I hope you’ll find it in your heart to forgive me
I just can’t stand by and abandon another try
To reach out anew
To taste the nectar of me and you
And work this thing through
‘Til there’s harmony and stillness
And the illness upon us lets loose it’s grip
And drip drops down into the ground
Sewing seeds of a sacred sound
Magnificent mirth all around
Innocence lost now being found

Disconnected, isolated…estranged
And yet thoughts reverberate beyond
Beyond thought
There is ONE
One’s response
My response
My act upon the stage
Of consciousness
Whose consciousness??
Besides,
What good are your little fantasies?
Where are the signs, the marks…
Of your greatness?
Your great intention
Your great feeling
Your great love
Your great this and that?
Let me see them.
Let me feel them!
Be them!!
Be…
Simply
Free
Connected
Whole
United
Happy
Harmonious
Helpful
Hopeful
Honorable
Humorous
Healthy
Humble
Honest
Heartfelt

I’d like to sing a song for you
That comes out feeling soft and true
Sometimes I don’t know what to do
But I know how it feels
When it’s beautiful

If in these few words and lines
I find the rhythm and the rhyme,
I’ll tell you what I’m gonna do
I’m gonna give my love to you

And even though it may sound quaint
This love is an ocean
This love is an ocean
This love is an ocean

My gentle friend
I do contend
That in the end
Our hearts will mend
And our rivers blend
Into that great ocean

Ocean of love
Ocean of love
Ocean of love
