Lyrics

Morning Shadows

Plodding morning shadows

Blanket the cracks along the patio

Droplets fall into tiny pools

That brighten with the white light of renewal

As one memory eludes me

Another consumes me

A pane of glass fogged by nostrils

Keeping me at bay from a world less hostile

The world is so vain

And uncertain

A death in the family

And I'm in love again

New day

New day

New day

New day

Melting frost on the juniper

Greyness evolves into a spectrum of color
