"Gumdrops"


Goodie Goodie Gumdrops

 

That fall onto the field 

 

Where the flowers play

 

Poetry is their ruler 

 

And their laws are the Classics


 

Where all love is justified and is not wrong

 

All good is universal and benefits all

 

There is no evil, it has faded away

 

The music is love and happiness

 

And positivity radiates from the cool sun


 

The fall is the only season as it yields a harvest of goodwill

 

The trees grow where wishes are made

 

The leaves taste of maple

 

The bark tastes like honey

 

The ground gives off her fruit when asked politely

 

And the wind blows calmness and inspiration to all


 

Divisions have been united 

 

Calamity has been blessed

 

Enemies have become friends

 

Negativity has been made happy

 

And the Darkness has been overcome in light


 

There are no words

 

There are no creeds

 

There are no religions

 

There is no war

 

There are no races 

 

All these old things have been wiped away

 

Like the final tears


 

The new has come that has never existed before

 

But now is the greatest thing of all

 

The things that rain down from the purple clouds

 

And appear before the lavender mist

 

And rose dew
