If the Plan’s already with us and our future’s all in place
If tomorrow’s waiting for us full of promise and of Grace
If synergy lifts our chin to show us, oh why
Don’t we see what’s staring in our face
Struggling to accept, we push our Fate aside
And forget each time that we are reborn our soul will be our guide
And so delude ourselves that we’re in control
Allowing ego, doubt and worse than that our pride
Acceptance, being humble helps to realise
That not wealth, power or position is a worthy prize
When Love is not our motive, nor love not our intent
The contract’s made before we’re born, accept if you’re wise
For fate is still our destiny, so Karma we do spend
Until the record’s empty, until we reach the end
With the cycles if rebirth we love with “little l”
As through our many lives we travel and onward we do wend
BIG L and little l
Little l is painful
Little l can hurt
Little l is necessary
Little l can flirt
Little l gives meaning
Little l gives life
Little l is a child
A husband or a wife
Little l a lover
Little l a friend
Little l is fleeting, or
Little l may never end
Little l can last a lifetime,or
Little l can flare and die
Little l needs tending so
Little l can fly
BIG L is so different
BIG L we must obtain
BIG L will be deep
BIG L will remain
BIG L father’s little l
They live side by side
Though always do remember
BIG L must lead and guide
BIG L must take little l
To that special place
Where our loving Father dwells
Where there is no time nor space
BIG L will help little l
Find Truth and Honesty
It’s only then we really are Home
Where we are meant to be
Both poems
