Travelling down a no return road
Going forward pass signs
On this winding, bending road
That tell me what’s ahead
Sometimes full of anticipation
Sometimes only dread.
Going forward
Not looking back
Not using a rearview mirror
To see behind
There’s no use in using that.
On the side of this my road
I’m passing beauty there
Just up to me to behold.
My salvation
May be at the end
Of this my own long road
But the journey to that place
Is up to me to unfold.

The beauty of a sunset
Filtered sun falling thru
The splendour of the sea
Nothing can impress
Like the world around of me.
No one will see the ugly
No one can forsaken me
For in my opinion
My heart is an untold wonder story
That I’m settling down to read.

Beauty beautiful is what I see
Spread all about, all about of me
The sun it shines, birds fly and
Mighty, fluffy clouds float by.
Yes, there’s beauty in the sky
The forest and even in my uncut lawn
To get up in the morning and see
Beauty, beauty all around of me
It is oh so beauty
Beauty, beautiful profound.

Slowly, softly the fog dissipates
Leaving beneath me
A breathtaking land of
Oh so much rare beauty.
In this grand, lovely land
Is a dream where I could exist
Bringing to my life a magic
I shouldn’t nor can resist.
Come join me there
In this wonderland I love
Come be part of a world where
All is filled with wondrous love.

The light is slowly lifting up
The obscurity that hides my soul
Touching, warming a heart
Immeshed in woeful sorrow.
Drying tears sadly falling
Cascading to the ground
While trembling lips remember
Days when sadness was
The sound.
But light does lift up
To a higher atmosphere
Creating beauty, happiness
In this that is our individual
Magic sphere.

Anger, frustration, chaos a maze
Struggling not to enslave
Power is paramount in this I crave
Out of the hill I find myself
Climbing so dazed.
Leave me be strong and right
In the thinking I need tonight
Figure a way out of this maze
See the opening you need
And you crave.
Make the right way happen
In front of my face
See the steps taken will lead the right way
Wisdom is crucial in this that I do
Be patient and wait for
The right answer too.
Fill you with glory, magnificent frame
See ugly wither and most likely drain
Straight down the hell hole where
To reside
And in all fairness probably find
Happiness there to hide.
Sweet, sweet refrain abide with me now
Lift up my spirits please show me how
Live in a world I have no power to change
Choose the right road down which
I can retain
All calmness and beauty whatever the game.

I look around and see
Exotic birds flying
Pass me
Bluejay, nuthatch
And chickadees
With a house wren
Every now and then.
While a cardinal
Sings a song
I don’t recall just now
I see a hummingbird
Hovering all around
Of me.
Ah, the beauty
The beauty
That surrounds me.

Flowing down the countryside
Blessings caress the morning side
As I see beauty here and beyond
The gently flowing bush and trees.
