Lilies

Deep inside I'm far away A world made of words Or full of those who walk alone The sun glows bright or cowers far Whatever suits my mood. And in my dreams the lilies sing A bright new song for all. They spread their dance through all the trees And cause the wind to cease, To listen in with baited breath For stories the lilies sing. They tell of all that they have seen and give the message, warm and bright, of joy they've seen from their sweet place. And when the woodlands felt unsafe They kept on waving, spreading hope, For they knew that was all they held. And those that learned to listen in found peace and comfort there Though times were rough and sun was scarce The lilies kept their peaceful song.
