The Answer Comes

We are going where? she said to him

as they were returning

to a questioning time they have had before

and asking where they will explore?

We continue on this sunny path

and when it’s cool we are by the hearth

home-fires burning

marshmallows toasting

and all the while

and all along

we will find ourselves and sing our song.

We have the music and the time

to waltz along, we’re doing fine

but if you think the beat’s too slow

then we will talk again and you let me know.

Well it is that my clock is ticking

and I know the song is singing,

the country ball is a’rocking

and the country hall closes just after midnight

so let’s pick up pace and whirl along

there is a Cinderella story

with music and most glorious lyrics

if we can dance in step

the life that comes will bring delight

and every day follows night.

Every answer comes in time

and every question may be asked

but every story doesn’t last

and every day there is a choice

and every opportunity

may bring rejoicing

or a way to choose again

so live the moments as they pass

as love is all that every lasts.

So the way ahead is what is there

and living life we come to share

all our hearts to sing the harmony

all our trust to set us free

all our love to simply be.

So yes the answer comes along

and yes the strength comes when we’re strong

and yes the joy is in the asking

and yes the love is everlasting.

Merrily go through each day

love your Self and love to say

all that comes I am grateful for

and I will go with you through that door.

So there we have the answer clear

every day fills a year

and every year it  is becoming clear

be yourself and let it be

wisdom, truth and clarity.
