All Things Same All Things Different

If it all changed
All things different
Colors the same
But rearranged
The place familiar
But the setting peculiar
As if in a dream
A place known
And unknown
A wondrous scene
What if you meant it this way?
What if?
You had your say
And now today
Is that day
You had hoped for
You did wish to go back to before?
So why is it different?
And feel so strange?
Perhaps it is not the place
But you who has changed
Although still called by the same name
Yes in the same town
Just got back?
Nah been around
Still hold the crown
And the key to the city
They already gave it to me
This all seems so differently
And perhaps now I can see
Nothing can stand still
Regardless of your wish
Your desire or will
And you decide whether or not it will be a thrill
Doesn’t have to be
It can be chill
But yes change it will
And so will you
That explains the different hue
What you do
And what you’ve done
Rise and set like the sun
Life on earth is about becoming one
Not some contest to be won
To become part of the sum
The connections to all things universal
This is the path of the spiritual
And that road is long and winding
With ups and downs
Fast-forwarding and rewinding
So here we are again in time unending
Same setting same place
But all things occupy new space
A new journey on a road that leaves a trace
Now we take it at my pace

What's Your Calendar Like?

Do you have plans tonight?
What about next week?
What is your calendar like?
I got plans
Want to join?
You might
They won’t start tonight
Or tomorrow at dawns light
For real
They started by God’s might
In the first instance
The first light
Now I’m here
And I’ve been far and near
Here and there
Through lifetimes
On many planets I did reside
And always learned to thrive
So I am going to stick with what is working
The Lord doing the conducting
I’ll just be serving
Living
And Learning
Hopefully are plans will align
The stars will shine
Underneath the night sky
We combine
