What I See

This is what I envision the world the way I see it.

I see the world turning

Dipping on its axis

I see the world spinning

The world collapses

I see the world crying

As in some sad song

I see the world dying

I knew it all along

I see that life is spilling

Onto cobble stone

I see the grasses turning brown

Beneath troubled homes

I see the trees whisper

Ancient tunes of old

I see children crying for answer

Beneath the stories untold

I see the fern is on fire

For the song dies within

I see the eyes of many

For they are bathed in sin

I see that life is withering

Years long gone away

I see that life has meaning

As we pray for another day
