HAVE YOU EVER?
Have you ever stood at the edge of a cliff
A peaceful, blue ocean in sight,
With the sun on your face and the wind in your hair
Toyed with a fantasy of flight?
Have you ever watched as the sun disappeared
And the moon began to rise,
Could you see yourself upon a golden ray
Riding the horizon of night?
Have you ever sat alone as dusk met dark
On the top of a grass-covered hill,
Envisioned yourself on the crest of a star
Floating a sky silent and still?
Does the world spin madly about you
While you seem to remain motionless,
Not a part, singular and separate
Extraordinary freedom possessed.
Oh, to capture these moments
Within a whispery vault of love,
To bestow upon you in an hour of sorrow
Brought forth on the wings of a dove.
For whenever life beats you down
Hurts you and steals your smile,
Just open the vault, recapture the moments
And feel light-hearted again for awhile.
