Little Moth

 


Oh little moth

On my swing's post

Tell me the answers where truth

lies most.


Is it in this family 

that abides so near?

Or is it in the nomad's life

where truth is more clear?


How will I ever know

when duty holds me here?

Whether truth lies in responsibility

or in a wanderer's life more clear.


Then,

I heard your small voice,

you said to me,

"Be quiet, be still, for both lives are free."



Joni James 1997
