NOTES AND QUOTES

      All we Know

All we know is but a spark,

Rising from the blaze of mystery,

A falling star in the dark,

Descending from a height we cannot see.

In mists that rise from woodland streams,

The way that we could fly in childhood dreams,

Truth comes in on winds that blow

From beyond the rim of all we know.

I have my doubts about certainty.

It’s not all that it’s made out to be.

I trust in things I cannot see,

And reach out for the love that’s reaching me,

In mists that rise from woodland streams,

The way that we could fly in childhood dreams,

Truth comes in on winds that blow

From beyond the rim of all we know.

The secret things remain concealed,

But this good news has been revealed

(And that’s a gift): the rift is healed.

And there’s a treasure hidden in this field,

In mists that rise from woodland streams,

The way that we could fly in childhood dreams,

Truth comes in on winds that blow

From beyond the rim of all we know.
