Imperial Lotus Blosom

[1st v:]

What rises true
Leaves no question
Unanswered for me
Or you

No lie lies long enough
To continue on
No matter how
Easy
No matter how rough

But just like
What stands true
In a ming dynasty

Its time
To unveil
What one desires
To bring to life
From fantasy

[1st ch:]

She blooms
So graciously

Give her the sun
Give her the moon

Nothing can ever happen
Ever happen too soon

She breathes life
In the imperial lotus bloom

Bringing with her
Life before
Life now

Giving all direction
In every day
Every way
Somehow

Nothing
Too much
Nothing
Too soon

Beauty rises in the
Imperial lotus bloom

[2nd v:]

Walk through the garden of life
Past
And beyond

Ignoring all interruptions
Viewing

Understanding
Happiness grows from
Strife

Its here
She's there

Growing in time
Learning
Just how everything
Can shine

Learning
Understanding

Learning just why
Life happens the way it does

Understanding
The reason why
Sometimes
Enough
May not

Just may
Or may not

Be enough

She continues to bloom
Continues to grow

Forming from all she knows
Enough
Enough for her to know

All may have happened too soon
But
But the imperial lotus bloom
Is the wiser

Standing out
In the imperial garden

She graces with beauty
From what she has grown to know

Leaning away
From all doubt

She knows more
Then what you want to believe

Now you can understand
Why she continues on
Closing one more door

So now
Open your hand
See what is true

What do you have
What do you take with you

All of everything
Did you grow from all
Of what you now know

Do you now stop
Believe its all
Ever lasting

[2nd ch:]

She blooms so
So graciously

Give her the sun
Give her the moon

Nothing happens too
Ever too soon

She breathes life
In the imperial lotus bloom

Bringing with her
Life before
Life now

Giving all direction
In everyday
Every way
Some how

Nothing
Too much
Nothing
Too soon

Beauty rises in the
Imperial lotus bloom

~ Inspired by: Viewing a Imperial Garden and thoughts drifting from viewing a lotus blosom....as well as incorporating some Oriental Prophecy to compliment the theme ~
