Those church bells welcomed her into this world
And there she was her mother at her side
With holy waters into life was hurled
This angel proved to be her father’s pride
...
When morning came Michelle was gone
Another wish had kissed the dawn
Yet as we dreamed what worlds were drawn
Enough to build lost lifetimes on
...
Low strangers yet we feel this long lost thrill
Of seeing someone from forgotten past
Viewed with eyes that somehow love you still
Eternity has brought us back at last
...
How did it start he didn’t know
But what this was won’t let him go
He prays for death so this will end
What was the wound which he must sew
...
So sure of love and all that it can be
This kiss to celebrate the moment met
That’s why two lovers wept beneath a tree
...
There he sits neither brazen nor too shy
The boy who sits and smiles at the sky
He is not moved as those who pass him by
He sits and smiles his head up to the sky
...
My son there are fields you may stray
With flowers to take hearts away
Where you can be happy all day
But listen to words I now say
...
Let’s paint our tales of that was that
In vibrant colors from our hat
The wonders of the once was you
Is now the subject of their chat
...
