Higher Ground

Ub 40

6

Every hour of every day I'm learning more

The more I learn, the less I know about before

The less I know, the more I want to look around

Digging deep for clues on higher ground

Moon and stars sit way up high

Earth and trees beneath them lie

The wind blows fragant lullaby

To cool the night for you and I

On the wind the birds fly free

Leviathan tames angry sea

The flower waits for honeybee

The sunrise wakes new life in me

The fishes swim while rivers run

Through fields to feast my eyes upon

Intoxicated drinking from

The loving cup of burning sun

In dreams I'll crave familiar taste

Of whispered rain on weary face

Of kisses sweet and warm embrace

Another time another place

And every hour of every day I'm learning more

The more I learn, the less I know about before

The less I know, the more I want to look around

Digging deep for clues on higher ground
