IS IT SERIOUS ?
 

The game we play,
so well and so long,
is it serious,
is there a right, or a wrong?

Is life serious,
the answer is yes, the answer is no,
we should never hurt another,
is the only rule that I know.

Is nature serious,
when it rains at night,
is the sun serious,
while it shines so bright?

The rainbow so awesome,
the sound of the thunder,
the beautiful sunset,
that fills us with wonder.

This is nature showing,
life is for fun,
not a thing is serious,
not a single one.

We are the energy,
same as the rain,
we are here right now,
never to be again.

We are but a flicker,
of energy, of space,
no need to rush,
we're not in a race.

We are a dance of nature,
we are a dazzling display,
we are whatever we want,
we can think, we can say.

There is nothing serious,
about time, about space,
for the time is now,
and here is the place.

Look around and be what you choose,
take a step forward and dare,
challenge your mind to live,
it is serious enough to care.
