Just lumbering across the fields Or nibbling at their grassy yields Or standing calmly in a pasture Fearing no earthly disaster Maybe it is they who know the truth That man forgot back in his youth That time is one of man’s inventions To gauge our deeds and best intentions Oh to stand beneath a [...]
You perch like one whose wings are clipped Or a skater who on ice has slipped Only you can hold you now Just ask yourself, you still know how Remember what it is to fly And hold the image in your eye Grow again your wings anew And return to skies where once you flew [...]

To work with what you have
To learn that you are grateful
To live, and love, and laugh
