To Enlightened Be


Atop the tippy top top
Is where I want to be.
Where I would see the top tops
Of every other tree.

And I could see the river
As it moves on to the sea
From the tippy tippy top top
Of my giant redwood tree.

The clouds and I would parlay
About being high and free.
The moon would whisper in my ear
Things to which I would agree.

Atop the tippy top top
Is where I want to be.
Because I long so dearly
To see everything so clearly
And to enlightened be.
