the fall leaves
glisten in the dew
of a slightly rainy morning
a slightly faded view
i breathe in as i remember
falling asleep on the side
of the couch
with the notes
tripping
dripping
like acid
in my mind
dancing in circles
beautiful tunes
and i fall into view
delicately
softly i remember
these simple
beautiful
forgotten things
as a child i smell the
soft scents of laundry
and leaves
trucks
and trains
the city looms
across the way
i see the top of the buildings
and i remember
looking at story books
when i was young
and thinking some day
i would dance in tune with the city
that never sleeps
here i walk down the Brooklyn streets
i savor the moment for i know
each and every one is precious
the leaves twinkle
in a million shades
and i hear a voice inside say
isn't it beautiful
yes it is and i look and the red
fades to yellow
mixing
expanding
interconnected with green
laying down on the streets
the breeze catches a leaf and takes it
slowly down to me
and i hear a voice that says
isn't it beautiful
just like you
just like everyone
each unique
each with a story born
into glory
that comes into the world
and touches people
then fades
into the cement
into the sidewalk
into the gray
the leaves come
they turn
they fall
moments slip
we are like leaves
on trees
we are the most beautiful
when we burn
when we turn
when we fall off
our place of security
when we dance in the air
then grace the face of those there
when we let go
and we let the breeze take us
and lift us to space
where we trip into view
i connect the truth to the
nature
it is all passing
and we will all fade
we will all one day
vanish into the ground
but what matters is all
those we touch
when we are here
all the times we let go
and drop from the sky
when we open up and dive
into the bliss of not knowing
how we will be
where we will be
i trip in my mind
on the subway
between the time
and space
my mind connects the seen
to what is unseen
as i fall into a meditative state
within a car
where people are rushing
thinking
a million things to do
a million ways to cling
they look coldly
and i look back
fall
like the leaves
let go of the trees
trip into space
don't be afraid
for it is the most
beautiful moment
when the trees
let go of the leaves
and they dance in mid air
around me
they fall into me
i join them
i let go off the branches
that are all around
and i fall
into the blue
into the bliss
of freedom
of this Echelon
do you remember
the sun setting
next to the moon
in heaven where earth left me wandering
across the sky when visions left me to breath
in the beauty left covered in memories
blankets wrapping around me
in silent motion
stitching up broken hearts and torn emotions
together inside there is a reason why
the moon and the stars live in the sky
next to the moments which pass by
in surrender
dear God please watch over us
as we try not to fall
into the state of a million
temptations
please bless this moment with your energy
keep us safe and help us behave
we are two of your lost sheep
trying to find the way
please protect us from the darkness that lurks
take what could be a disaster and turn it into
something beautiful
take destruction flip it around into creation
in the name of God let all that is not of God
be cast out into the dark
away from us
as we come together
to sing to create
to pour our love
into something for your name sake.....
please send your angels down from heaven to
fill this room keep us safe and protect us from what we know
could be our doom
please help us to be strong and to remember you’re
the reason we are here
as i look into the eyes of
one of your children
help me to remember
i am looking at you
help the sun to shine down
and break through all the things which
could harm us or hold us down
keep us in your sanctuary
in this reality fill us with your spirit
light us on fire
let your desire
fill us and over come us
so we are not tempted to fall together
into sin
watch over your lost sheep give us strength
for we are weak
please God keep me from sin
cleanse my heart from deep within
this is my prayer
father
please hear my plea
as i call down on my knees
open my heart
lift it to the sky
youre the reason why
