A Greater Someplace
I wish there was a button I could push
and appear in a place where smiles are permanent,
burdens light;
where the rain and the sun are forever friends,
and animals come in droves to introduce themselves-
 
I want to exist in the cool of day,
like the type that was in the Garden of Eden
when Adam heard the voice of God’s footsteps,
and harmony did not yet know dyslexia-
 
I want to run from this wicked world,
where pain resides in the air we breathe,
and suffering is a societal norm
 
I yearn for purity
And fullness of heart,
in a place where glory is in every step,
and the ground encourages you to go further;
 
Where life can be seen face to face,
and even the rocks speak from a place of intelligence
Where ease is present
And honor has vigor
And purpose exposes all things superficial
I want to ride the lightning
And surf the rings of Saturn
Vacation in seashores on heavenly beaches
I want to go to a greater place
And witness the glory that so often escapes me
