Upon My Path


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I found upon my path
An abandoned flowerpot
In my stride, heard a laugh
Moving on, I could not
Because
I had to arrest and surrender


 

 

 

 

 

 


I discovered along my trip
A single rose in blush
As it fell upon my hip
I halt, I could not rush
Because
I had to strike the petals, so tender

Along an endless somber search
A stray of morning light
Inside a hidden church
I found peace at night
Because
You are the message, I’m the sender.

Proclaiming my deepest love
A flowerpot, a single seed
In sunshine, rain, all above
To paradise my path will lead
Because
I’m the debtor, you are the lender

Many, many years from now
A rose bouquet in full bloom
Before it I will bow
As my journey resumes
Because
For you I will my life surrender
