its claim to fame
hear O Father see me pulling my dreams along
real from imagination inserting the key
each step I make positive and certain
knowing its true for every part me you
traveling this world named Earth by land air
for all its claim to fame presently me breathing free
in whispering breaths a symphony swells
a chorus of life in the silent shells
each inhale a dance each exhale a song
in the rhythm of being we all belong
amidst the chaos the noise the strife
theres a quiet miracle the essence of life
for in the simple act drawing breath
we find the treasures beyond lifes breadth
to breathe oh what a wondrous thing
in every gasp a universe does spring
from the depths of lungs to the heights of sky
in this exchange we cannot deny
for all its claim to fame the grand design
in the moment of now its yours and mine
a gift of existence a chance to be
to savor the air to feel truly free
so let us cherish this beautiful art
to breathe with purpose with every part
for in this breath we find our way
to live to love to seize the day
as I play in mind for all my kind
