HOW FAR WILL ONE VOICE GO

 

When it comes to spreading love throughout the world 

I like to think I’ve made that choice…

but I often wonder if I’m succeeding

after all…I’m just one voice.

 

But then I remind myself how an oak tree begins as one acorn

at first a little small and underrated…

but from that one acorn a tree is born

add more acorns and a forest is created.

 

A tiny seed is planted…

safe and secure in it’s underground room.

but from that one seed a flower grows

add more seeds and a whole garden begins bloom.

 

Every acorn contributes to the creation of a forest.

From each seed a flower then a garden is grown.

The tallest pyramids all began …with the laying of one stone.

 

So when I think I’m only one small voice…

perhaps I need a change of attitude…

because my one voice…when joined by others becomes a multitude.

 

So with my one voice I will do my best to spread love

because I never know

once my voice is joined by other voices…

how far that love will go.
