The Joy of Unseen Things

Can you see these faces on the wall?
The boy and girl in a tight embrace.
I know them all, figures big and small,
As they move around and change their place.

Can you read that book up in the sky?
They aren’t just clouds, what’s that you say?
Look, that’s a rabbit, a fluffy lion, up high,
Un-focus your mind, it’s easier that way.

Can you watch the ballet in my fireplace?
Dancers performing in fiery passion.
Keeping perfect rhythm with the crackle and hiss,
They choreograph their tale in a fevered fashion.

If you can see what I can see
Why! You’re a member of my clan.
Come on over and sup with me,
Together, we’ll unfold the universal plan.

Let us not tiptoe around this,
The magic and joy of things unseen
Let us savour and taste life as it is,
Without wondering what it all means.
