I Was Told
Look to the moon, look to the sun,
Look to the stars, don't turn and run.
Look to the sky we are still here
Just Open your eyes, you'll know we are near
And as I looked into skies above,
I saw a sight I've come to love,
The hawks did fly in endless circle
Three at first and then a double,
And then I saw in full amazement,
A fledgling circling with the three
And together flew with fledgling did they,
And I knew that I still infant lay
In spirit scared and doing my best,
To pass through this difficult test,
And with those there I will succeed
And smile return and then to read,
The signs and signals, the hope and joy,
That resides within those that I enjoy,
I love you my angel, you keep me here
And with your love I feel less fear
Than I have had in past few days
Even though I remain amazed
At the things that I have seen
At the wonders that have been
Though the physical brings doubt
I know this too will be thrown out
Of my spirit, mind, soul, and heart
So I will endeavor to play my part
In the riddle of life and universe
And in communion, with them converse
To bring me back to joyful spirit
And all the love that comes within it
