It’s the magic I like here most -
having a message to the Almighty Lord,
when you send it by verbal post
and the answer is what you’ve got.
There’s always an answer
to your wishes and prayers,
and the secret of this magic
is the wisdom within every day.
It is being alive, to feel, see,
touch, smell and hear.
It’s hearing the songs of the rivers
running towards the seas,
it’s seeing a black raven’s wings
shining as it passes through winds.
It’s being a mother
touching your baby’s skin
so soft, tender and silky.
To kiss your darling’s lips
and want nothing more
than to be in hugging hands
that warm you up
and sweeten your sleep
in the cold nights.
It is the roses’ scent
after the summer rain.
What a precious gift
from our Lord
just to be on this planet
and live.
Oh, human, for God’s sake,
don’t destroy this world.
It is unique.
It is God’s bliss.
