the jack rabbits own worth

the town it did bussle

crazy days and quiet nights

the town was united

in movement and might.

much love was around

yet jack rabbit didn't know how

to truly love and be

his true self, his "me".

going through the motions

was all that was taught.

he didn't know much

but he knew what he was not.

he wasn't the rich mr opp

or the bum or the cop

whoa thank goodness

"at least im not fat or lazy

or homeless or crazy."

on and on mr jack rabbit went.

his life it did go

for routine was all he did know.

after while

his smile

sure went away.

it was on that day

he sure did say

"what am i doing?"

so deeply and truly.

he loved his sweet family

his neighbors and friends

yet this lifeless cycle

must come to an end.

so jack rabbit left

away he sure went

to find who he was

and to ensure he was enough.

pain and misery came when he left

he now he could breathe.

"why have i been hiding?

what did i do to me?"

he sat and he cried

for so long he lied

to make himself feel

that the outside world was real.

he walked around barefoot

and thought back to times

when he was so happy

and the sun sure did shine.

he thought about the bad

and how he was sad

yet that is okay

all the times of the past

made him this way.

he practiced patience and enjoyed being alone.

for deep in his heart

he knows.

he knows that this is the truth

free pure and true.

all you must be

is authetically you.

it took a bit to find

don't pay that no mind

for when you do

your heart will beat

and love

and be true

you see what's outside

is only what's in

and at that point

is where life truly begins.

he ascended again

and felt like he was renewed

fully and greatly

"where have i been?"

he learned "i've always been here

just locked up away

trying to stay

in the place that i made.

trying to respect that views of others

but i no longer hid

under the covers.

i choose to shine bright

and show off my might.

for i was born to be

exactly and fully me.

god guided me home

the one only i know.

it was scary but true.

i cannot wait to share it with you."

he made his way home

feeling alone

because he was scared

that he worth is no more.

"they won't like me anymore"

i don't have a job,

i live to be alive

i love to be curious

and explore the unknown.

i trust in the lord

and work with him so

he loves you forever,

don't you know?

what lives within

will surely shine without

as long as you trust

and cast all doubt out.

he saw his village

and joy over took

for a new appreciation

and a new chapter in the book.

he moves from the heart.

life is an art.

where we each hold our brush

and create each stroke so lush.

we each have a place

in the earth's holy space

because we come from above

and are born of love.

he dark feelings sizzled

and he remembered the truth.

that what is within

shows the out

a mirror without a doubt.

so much happiness peace and love.

a true blessing from above

to be with your family

exactly as you are

and no longing

being at afar.

to welcome your true essence and creating that space

and loving each member of your family

because you know the importance of their place.

the end xxxx
