Going Nowhere
Up and down the busy highways
Speeding with the frenzy of fright
People hurry going nowhere
Racing toward the next red light.
Seeing not the world about them
Each scene a perfect postal card
Painted just for their enjoyment
By the wondrous inner Bard.
Searching for a distant tomorrow
Mirages just out of the race
Knowing not the now of present,
Where all of life's events take place.
Slow down
Dear Friends
Hear the music -
See the scenes of life unfold -
The grandest show on earth
Your missing
The greatest story
Ever told.
Speeding with the frenzy of fright
People hurry going nowhere
Racing toward the next red light.
Seeing not the world about them
Each scene a perfect postal card

By the wondrous inner Bard.
Searching for a distant tomorrow
Mirages just out of the race
Knowing not the now of present,
Where all of life's events take place.
Slow down
Dear Friends
Hear the music -
See the scenes of life unfold -
The grandest show on earth
Your missing
The greatest story
Ever told.
