today, today, exactly what about today
its today and this today
will never be again…
should i make sure
that this today
is a memorable today
or should i make sure
that the today that is tommorow is better?

When i am old, and my eyes grow dim
i hope that i will have seen
enough of the world to say
I have truly Lived.

When i am old, and my heart grows weak
i hope that i will have experianced
enough joy, laughter, love and hope to say
I have truly Lived.

When i am old, and my mind grows feeble
i hope i will have gained
more wisdom than the wisest man, and say
I have truly Lived

When i am old, and my body fails
i hope i will have given
people reason to say
We were glad that you Lived.

Well these are new song lyrics. Don’t have a recording of the song yet though. It’s sort of a lullaby for a child I don’t have yet… but I’m working on it.

“Paper Crane”

Make a poem of your life,
Scrawl it on a page,
Fold it like a paper crane,
And let it fly away.

I will fetch it down for you,
Fix it to a tune,
Maybe add a line or two,
And sing it for the moon.

Weave your life of cotton thread
Upon a spinning wheel.
Dye it all the colors of,
The many ways you feel.

I will wash it out for you,
Hang it on a line.
Wrap it tight around myself,
And things will be just fine.
