Changing Life

By: Loraine Anderson

It's a long stretch of road
I see myself going
Inner peace ain't no load
Sweet, serene, really soothing

It's a long stretch of road
I see myself going
Excitement penetrates for whatever lies ahead
Hope and peace takes abode

Joy and music in the making
Yes, I'll say
There is laughter
in Harlem

Imagining,
Imagining and seeing the way life feels to me
Seeing,
And wanting to live the way my life should be

Sounds cut off by closed windows
Tranquilty- so peaceful it solidifies
Like drifted music,
Mystic sensation

Dream of beauty-
I'll say it's raining in Venice
Dream of love-
I'll say I'm changing life.
