So I Imitate Creation
excel in imagination that my soul and the worldly may blend
generatin' cause of an outer worldly denomination
that i can bend, transfer to the eyes and extract awes
pausin' on the boulevard of memories
channel a path of all green for my energy
hope it ain't the green lit jealousy
mistaken for the get go
misheard the waters saying let go
settle back into
the 7 Seas
may the heavens see my seven wonders
and humility seize my heavy blunders.
So i may see my son rise like the summers
set to change the season
winter force a cool calm collect of thoughts
sand grains shift into snow flakes
gather time into the looking glass
looking past the window panes
of history and heritage
I bond past with present like marriages
Took the H for Heart, I known to J
and J became of Age, pains me to know
stressing to grey hairs that things fall apart
Busy finding things to set me apart
yet I remain here, waiting for things to start.
Didn't I know?
I was the play button to the song
the stroke to the paint brush, I was trust
to relationships and love
I was the contender to the challenges
I was the squeeze to the trigger
the glacier to the river
meant to transform into something bigger
figure the youth like the birds in autumn
upon them bless that they don't forget the place
of their mothers nest
Pressin' print to kickstart genesis
Surprised my arms aren't inked
To Think, I Feel
compulsion to blink twice at beauty so i know its real
Instill power like the sun to hills
counting hours can we enjoy ours?
and let time ease to eternity
interlaced with sincere certainty
of unfeared uncertainty Creation is my remedy
exercising my soul with recreation.
I'm Re-Creating origins like monuments to greatness
If good poets borrow, may my steal remain stainless.
Sipping the source of which my family tree root placed placements.
The seed will fall and rise
don't call me apple johnny in hopes i be famous
may i grow old to be ageless
be wise and reach heights
that the heavens may catch sight
till i fade away like the breeze enjoy while its still here today.
