the blue sky is bright
absolute sun shining
the face of the light
illuminates glimmering
brightness shimmering
and all that is
is all that is right
i watch
clouds meandering
birds philandering
green grass is flowing
berries and flowers growing
i drink
from a cold fresh stream
slaking my thirty thirst
then relaxing, daydreaming
of odd and fantastic things
i eat
of what the valley provides
satisfy a hungery hunger
then resting, sleepdreaming
of strange and wonderful things
i sit
as the daystar sets
and as the light fades
the birds song turns
to the crickets chirp
i ponder
as a deep stillness
sets over the valley
a telling quiet calmness
so unsure but yet quite sure
i stare
blind in the dark night
and i become aware
of stars and moonlight
my eyes slowly adjust
i see
the clouds form again
but darker now, fuller
in a quick moment
calm turns to a downpour
the black sky is wet
absolute rain cleansing
the hands that are washing
precipitates glimmering
wetness shimmering
and all that is
is all that is right
i think
without this
it would all turn
to dust
dirty dry dust
i build
light a small fire
in a safe dry place
then run out into
the rain anyway
i dance
of light and of hope
carefully and carefree
because all that i have
is all i need, a simple decree
i have myself
i have food
i have water
i have warmth
i have shelter
this is all i need
the sun grows
the rain grows
the moon grows
the soil grows
the fire grows
the self grows
and all that is right
is all that is right
