Publisher Description
From the joy of being alive through the days of falling in love, raising a family, finding faithquestioning and living itchanging, maturing, and finally facing lifes closure, this book of poetry presents it all. Then, in case that isnt enough, a bevy of songs are added to express life yet another way.
There is joy: The laughter started way down low,
Maybe in my great big toe
Contemplation: A wing-ed bird chirps out the first dawn call
And soon pink sky is flooded with the sound. . .
Love: Spray bounced off the strictest cliffs,
Coating briefly lovers lips
Lifes changes: The emptiness
the quiet space
The laughter gone
Some other place
Faith: I am no longer my own, but Thine.
Put me to what Thou wilt.
Rank me with whom Thou wilt.
And facing lifes closure:
Fine old house,
We have outlived them all
And you shall remain
When I am gone.
Then you will fill again.
You will never be alone.
Then, after the poetry, comes music of faith and life that ends on this spirited note:
Kick up your heels, baby!
Life is to be lived!
Itll take all you can give,
So kick, kick, kick!
Kick up your heels, baby!
