Patchwork – Echolyn – letras

Gather, learn and listenGrasp a piece of life and hold itMold it to your likingAnd place it in the potter’s kilnLessons learned in church and schoolHelp shape the growing childTall tales, fables, folklorePlace perspective on todayTaste the timbreWatch it’s phrases archingTells a story of my ownBreathing patchworkTangent lines that cadencePalms and songs depict my lifelineStories have been gatheredFor those who crave for something moreLessons for a futureIn what we learn and earn todayOthers learn to captureThe themes they heard upon the pageScores of scores of textbooksServe as my soul’s family treeMy life revolves in dreams which evolve through foresightI’d achieve, and while the sounds of those around meIs silent at times, I forge aheadDirected by where I want to goI too demand a focusYet from within reside benignand thank all those who strive to reachMore than one’s arm-length allowsGather, learn, and listenGrasp a piece of life and hold itListen to it’s spiritAnd send it on it’s way
