Queens And Kings

You must not only aim right, but draw the bow with all your might. - Thoreau

take me to a place where a heart is an open book

a place where glances see all and corners of eyes look

where no one speaks and everyone sings

where braille is felt deep down inside

and heaven is not just a place with wings

dig down deeply and pluck my strings

no matter what tomorrow brings

no matter how much faith clings

where love is woven into the fabric of all things

remember to always bow for

queens and kings
