Looking At Life

Looking at life and all its questions
Hoping for answers, there’s none I would mention
The book, it lies with open pages
Echoing thoughts of forgotten ages

Learned books with fingered messages
Compounding guilt and breeding heretics
I’ve read them all, or most of them
And didn’t feel better when I woke up again!

For me, for me, I have my way
Just like the clouds on a rainy day
Just as the sun in a sea-blue sky
As time goes by, I ask not why

Solutions, scriptures, tell-telling thoughts
Ethereal ways and best selling books
Aimed at the lonely, aimed at the lost
And just to settle the cost

Looking at life and learning too
From all that is given to you
The branches are there on the tree
The fruit is hanging for all to see

The tree of life, it is no book
The cherries are there for you to pluck
Sweet or bitter, sour and ripe
It’s when you taste, you’re looking at life

For me, for me, I have my way
Young woman on a field in May
And as you found, I still walk more
The seldom way worth lookin for
