Beyond the oldest mountain
And the furthest distant star
I’ve sought to find the love
In the howling of the wind
A mighty sound its thunder
What is within all as found
A flowing rivers murmuring
The dancing fragrant flowers
Colorful butterflies flutter on
I’ve looked for love longingly
All my dreams within me kept
My inner calling for love to be
A love within appeared to sleep
Stirring coals of past endeavors
An ancient book of stories told
A fading flower with seeds spent
No longer will I seek for the love
I
release all need for its presence
Life is a seed of love given to all
I cannot hold nor can I ever keep
My dreams within no longer sleep
