Another Turn

Turning the Curve 9/5/2013

Red light, Green light

Stop, start, and go

Without much thought

And no restraint at all.

Following our hearts

Wherever they shall go

From one extreme to another

Just because we could.

Like riding on the wings

Of a circling black bird

High above our heads

And screaming.

People make mistakes

And so also have I

But its better to be authentic

Than it is

To run and hide. 

Some people create

While others can only destroy

But they have not seen real destruction

Until it comes back

And falls on their head.

But God still loves the good

And he has not forgotten

So while there may be silence

The wheels are still turning.  

We can still be free

But only if we try

And never give up

Our hands, spirits, or minds. 

We can burn forever

Inside of his heart

Soaring high above

Gravity and death.

That is the promise

You can feel in each gift

Every time we grow

And every time we try.
