George — From Life to Life with Me

George

(“Floating down the stream of life — From Life to Life with Me.” — George Harrison)

I see you in the garden In each flower stem, each tree; Your music like the water Is flowing over me.

The colours of the rainbow Are shining in your eyes The mirror of the soul, Of the notes you bless, Of the ethereal skies.

Chorus “From Life to Life with me” Through the gate of Paradise, Where the sweet sound of the water And the starlight in your eyes Touch the petals of your whisper The universal seed; For the beauty of your music Is all this garden needs.

I see you in the garden I hear your whisper there The notes you pluck forever Your song is everywhere.

And “Down the Stream Time” You float, a leaf, a seed Beyond the cling of earth Of the body, the air That held you once — you’re freed.

By the light of far pavilions And the distant shining stars, Where the music of the spheres Will tell you where you are. May the beauty of the petals, Their silk dress, and their scent Be the place of all your longing, The Paradise you meant. — © Frank Callery, April 26th, 2017.
