Happy days ahead, can we dare think of that? / countryliving.com
I will sing to you of happy days
grasses, thick and green
rivers are for real
the sky’s blue in the morning
and star-lit in the evening.
I will sing to you of happy days
mountains full of trees
flowers abound, have in them bees
birds chirping loud, unfazed
savor the breeze, an afternoon of peace.
I will sing to you of happy days
when words hold precious meaning
even as they’re not spoken
music, carried forth by the wind
people truly have time to listen.
I will sing to you of happy days
though they be long and winding
there’s time to pass by, roads meandering
no harm, I suppose, with hands aholding
little thoughts given, to time afleeting.
I will sing to you of happy days
walking, roaming, seeing
jumping, playing, listening
holding, examining, touching
feeling, caring, believing.
We must get back our ability to imagine/ enviroliteracy.org
I will sing to you of happy days.
* This was written on February 8, 2012 for my sibling. I think I once tried giving a copy of the poem to the kin, can’t remember if it was the giver or the receiver who, at that moment, hesitated. Am unsure if I can muster another attempt. So, am putting a copy here, in case I miss another chance. Some guts I have, huh? Ahaha, I used to do better. ^^
To believe again, in a world that promises little … 🙂
