Nectar
For the soul.
It’s rewarding and uplifting,
And nectar for the soul,
The perfect way of gifting,
A recipe to make me whole.
Lost in love now lonely,
The devil and deep blue sea,
I’m not the one and only,
I long now to fly free.
Across the blue horizon,
Out west into Jerrong,
A hymn and an orison,
And an orchestra and song.
Past the present principle,
Pretence is left behind,
I dance with my disciple,
The magic in my mind.
So, when I feel the need to peel,
The layers off and sing,
And return to what is real,
Where love’s the real thing.
It’s heart-warming and beautiful,
And gratifying too,
Altogether wonderful,
A feeling that is true.
The seams of satisfaction,
Rare elements of life,
Removing all the friction,
The clamour and the strife.
Fills my heart with happiness,
A great way to begin,
Dealing with the duress,
A feeling deep within.
