AUTUMNS SONG

SO NOW WE’RE BLESSED
WITH AUTUMNS SONG
AS DAYS GROW SHORT
INSTEAD OF LONG
LOST IN TIME
THOSE SUMMER DAYS
WHILE DRINKING WINE
IN SUN DRENCHED HAZE
THE HUES THAT NOW
ARE IN FULL SHOW
CONTAIN THE BROWNS
OF NATURES FLOW
GONE THE REDS
THE BLUES
THE GREENS
NO MORE THIS YEAR
WILL THEY BE SEEN
JUST THE CHILL
TO CLEAN THE AIR
NO MORE THE FRAGRANCE
SET SO FAIR
BUT WE HAVE LIVED
SWEET SUMMERS GLOW
HELD IN TIME
AT LAST TO SHOW
THAT ONCE WE BATHE
IN SUMMERS LIGHT
AND FELT THE JOYS
THAT SEEMED JUST RIGHT
BEFORE THESE
CHARMS OF AUTUMN

Mistakes
Our biggest mistakes
Make perfect sense
Until we think them through
I must have made a million
I bet that you have too
But until we accept our weakness
That we are not the perfect ten
We will just keep right on making
Those same mistakes again

FORGOTTEN DISTANCE

DISTANCE IS JUST
A THOUGHT OF MIND
FOR AROUND EACH CORNER
IN LIFE WE FIND
THAT NOTHINGS REALLY
IS AS IT SEEMS
PASTS AND FUTURES
ARE NOUGHT BUT DREAMS
FOR ALL IN LIFE WE CAN RELY
IS ONLY IN THE NOW
