Trucks pass by my house all night
Across the river east and west
I hike for several hours a day
And climb upon the granite crest
Where I can see the valley floor
And forest with its secret streams
The gold mined towns that lie below…
On the last day of summer
The day before school
It started in the water
Everything was cool
Until we saw this thing appear
It didn't have a sound
This darkness in the water
Looked like a shroud
First
I thought
“I’m trippin’”
There…
The beach was deserted
We walked at the water’s edge
I knew she was a gift
As close as our future steps
Sunset forgot us
While we discovered life’s
Underformed questions
Washing onto naked feet
We were young, we were wild, chasing dreams without a plan,
Laughing loud, staying up, writing stories in the sand.
Time moved on, like the waves, washing footprints out to sea,
But somehow, through the distance, you were always there for me.
Maybe someday the sun will rise,
And paint new colors in her eyes,
Maybe I'll wake and find my breath,
No longer sleepin’ next to death.
The wind blew in from the holler last night,
Carried the sound of a baby's cry,
But the crib lays…

I've been missing in action for ages - apologies to all, I'm about to start listening again too.
For ages, I'd been considering a move away from my trusty Boss BR1600 on which I've recorded and mixed nearly everything…
