LIFE RECIPROCATES

If you create beauty,
Beauty will create you.

If you give birth to a child,
The child will give birth to you.

If you make a mistake,
The mistake will make you.

If you reach for the Highest,
The Highest will reach for you.

And if you look for the Grail,
The Grail will find you.

THROUGH CHEQUERED FIELDS

There’s a woman I met
When the night was dark and long
And she walked, she walked along
Alongside me…

And she walked and walked with me
Through fields of chequered thoughts
And she said, she said everyday to me:
We belong together…

Together, wherever you go
Together, wherever you are
Together, however life fares
Together we walk
Where fears are hard to hide
She walks within my heart, golden torch bearer
And love forever mine.

I say it everyday to her:
Thank you, Love
But all she does, when all is grey
Is walk, she walks within my heart.
