Can You Feel The Love

Feel The Love

***

There is a spring
From which I draw water
Nourishes and sustains
All that’s living in me
All that’s living in me
All that’s living in me

This spring
Is a boundless horizon
A ever-expanding universe
A bottomless ocean

I fall
And I never touch the bottom
I climb a staircase
Eternally

I drink
And I am renewed
I am renewed
I am transformed

Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
All that’s living in you

I am a bird
I am a fish
Yes, I said I was a fish
I am a star

Push up through the earth
Poke up through the roots
Of an ancient tree
The first tree

I eat the fruit
Forget myself
Become a part
Of all that is
All that will be

Can you feel it
Can you feel it
Can you feel the love
Can you feel the love
Feel the love
Feel the love
