MY SOUL’S SWEET LOVE SONG In The Marketplace of Dreams In the marketplace of dreams, I often forget the Most valuable visions, The most tantalizing And empowering ways Of seeing what’s true— Engrossed in the world As it appears to be And wearing most men’s values Like dark sunglasses Over eyes that long To see the good and sacred, I must pass through the gates Of living in the ordinary world In the ordinary way Into the space of suffering, Again and again— Like a child that keeps Putting his hand in the fire To feel it burning, Until I am awakened By overwhelming pain And become aware of The peril I have put myself in By following the ways Of the material plane And trying to lick the honey From the razor’s edge— Until I shake myself awake And start climbing back up To higher ground— Until I let myself know What I have always known And see what I have seen From so many different angles— Until I slowly and carefully Climb out of the pit Or ditch I stumbled into— Out again into the Warm nurturing space Of clarity, truth, love and light That is always present and Available here and now— Like the dawning of a New day of openings of The mind and heart That help me rise Above all the flames and Let’s my soul sing Its radiant love song To all of creation. October 4, 1984

ONE OF THE MOST PROFOUND and POWERFUL Classic Rock N Roll Songs Ever Written….
This song was light years ahead of its time when it was recorded and released in 1973…and it still conveys a heartfelt and moving message that we all need to hear!
This stunningly beautiful music video has had over 265 million views on You Tube and is complete with on screen lyrics for easy sing along! This song is awesome at high volume or on quality headphones!
