The Holy Holy Holy Trinity


Freedom Justice Equality
Here to there and back again
These mighty three lead us to win
Any right of passage or battle or test
Has met in this trio our very best
When a task blares a dubious battle call
The triumphant triad deliver all
What then would our Legacy be
Lacking the wealth of the Holy Trinity?

Without Justice- Freedom lags in a tattered sway, blown by wailing winds
of harm that swirl and swarm enough to tug heavily, pulling, growing larger
and becoming the weary weight that wears worse on soul after soul.
The face of fairness is without form.

Without Freedom- Equality lies lifeless, dormant to the winds of change
which move everywhere but here. Breezes ripe with creativity have no ability
to be buoyant. Ideas that could rise are not opportune for flights of inspiration.
The struggle for warmth and welcoming withers.

Without Equality
- Justice leers a lurid glaze, far beyond future horizons toward
a one dimensional past. There, charged with impoverished tales and rich with
painful indignity, we no longer abide in the realm of dreams.
The ability to live out the vistas of possibility is lost.

fortune waves

fortune waves its crystal scepter
languid crests nudge at my door
beguiling by simple reason and wit
building its crowns from rush to roar

justice calls its lonesome cry
are you hearing the heartfelt song?
will you be standng at the ovation?
shall we and family sing along?

humanity often seeks its best
in making dreams of a better way
persistence pays to pass each test
revealed as learning day by day

living leads by circumstance
bringing opportunity to our door
held captive by the dance of chance
until all possibilities are no more

venture not where fortune fails
nor where justice has no song to sing
any dreams will have verily vanished
from the tempest bad times will bring

rather, tarry in the moment
give into the lush of now
all the goodness comes upon you
never waivering from the wow!
