I lived in a place…
Life changed hands as an old piece of bread,
and many waited for the next bead on the thread.

I lived in a place…
Happiness was measured by things we sought,
and many felt emotions can be bought.

I now live in a place…
Blessed with sovereignty of every emotion,
setting the blue sponges in motion.

I now live in a place…
Anointed by a stroke of his warmth and grace,
greeting everyone with a smiling face.
