We Are

​

There are moods to our memories

They envelop the scenes

Sights, sounds, and scents

The feelings within our means

 

Walks and drives in the night

A chirping cricket, a train

From the hollow of fog

To the pelting of rain

 

Warmed by the sunshine

Like the love in a smile

In the steps moving forward

Day to day mile to mile

 

Where are we all

When the waves rise and crown

Alone with our worries

But not ready to drown

 

Find your moments of silence

In that silence is peace

Then share what you’ve learned

To offer others release

 

We are moods to our music

We are shades of our light

We must shine on each other

As the stars in the night

 

We are molecules of magic

We are memories to spare

We are bound to no promise

But to love and to share
