In the Scheme of Things
Life is a well a spring a river
A stream in a dream
Muddy
If seen with open eyes
For half open and half closed eyes
That can see far beyond
Than dreams and actuality
It’s an ocean far and wide
That falls off towering cliffs
With a deafening thunder
Into an abyss
Impossible to fathom
By any means
Carrying the sun moon and stars
Earth and sky
And all that we know
Along with it
May be it’s a grand scheme of things
Of the universe or what we mean by it
Or something undefined
Entirely beyond our reach
