One Atom

ONE ATOM : Song

We sing our songs
wait for meditation gongs
as joints grow red and
knuckles like lead

We catch threads of Grace
prayer hands laced
All the world’s a stage
as we age, a sage
as we age, a sage


( CHORUS x 2

Carriages across space
angels and goblins hold an ace
we are one atom, no need to race
ONE glorious curious atom
ONE glorious curious atom ! )


Memories like dust in wind
smile at raindrops on a line
leaves floating away
into hazy blue bay


We delight going to sleep
switch off the bleep
contraction and expansion of time
no longer a maddening dime


Creations bright as bangles
patterns in our mind
make geometric angles
as multiverses untangle

( CHORUS x 2

Carriages across space
angels and goblins hold an ace
we are one atom, no need to race
ONE glorious curious atom
ONE glorious curious atom ! )
