i wandered in thoughts and didn't realize it

i wandered in thoughts and didn't realize it
until years had past but catching myself

laughing about all the wasted potential 

what i really could have done when seeing

where i am now frankly amazed at the outcome

still like a tree or still like an owl i heard  

last night and all the angels that flew regularly

all over the earth helping you and me just

in the nick of time we all think but the angels

are professionals in hope diligence and faith 

let me lay out all my wares in your mind

they are baubles and trinkets do you like any 

here are three prefect nights and one stainless dawn

here are all the stars i ever saw and a few sweet lies

take them with both hands they are free
