'Rainbow Path' by Masha Savitz Keys
Here is a thought, or a riddle,
It is curious, yet true,
Does it make any sense?
And how is this about YOU?
Listen up, here it is-
As it will go very fast,
But, ‘The path to move forward,
is made of magic from the past.’
I repeat, our best future
Is built on classic glory,
Where heroes and seekers,
make up the great story.
With kings and queens,
and creation lore,
by gods and goddesses,
from days of yore.
Like a relay race,
we pass on the baton,
so these things in our history
will continue to live on.
Like all the beautiful art
made from centuries ago,
The music and painting,
That we cherish so.
Because when we feel their power
We’re left in in wonder-
but if that chain were broken
We’d feel lost and asunder.
You see the path to the future,
is a like a bridge made of rainbow
each color essential,
from red to indigo.
No colors should be lost,
no color rejected,
for they paint our story,
each lesson respected.
The things that we cherish
And wish forever to last,
is our inheritance, our legacy,
its our magic from our past.
So if today, we think and remember
and put them into our hearts/ and fill our heart with this art
the most breathtaking music,
Like Saint Hildagurad and Mozart,
And we hold onto the splendor
like Renaissance painting and sculpture,
Michelangelo and De Vinci,
the best of human culture,
Fra Angelica’s beautiful angels
Captured for humans to see
Like peeking into heaven,
Visions so holy!
And if we take the best of what people formed
and learn how its done,
we’ll create a beautiful tomorrow
imagine the fun!
All the best stories-
lets write ourselves in!
we can wrap ourselves in words like a quilt,
so even if we lose we win!
So many stories-
That will need to be told
As the world’s recreated,
And miracles unfold!
Like magic dust sprinkled
across space, across time
now it has found its way to you
and into this ryhm,
So pass on the inspiration
and all wondrous things,
sprinkle magic dust from divine cultures,
and watch it grow wings!
