Round The Table

Round The Table

I bring to the table

My friends my family

The heart of my fields

Bounty to share

Coffee flows love

Of the company

Round the kitchen table

Souls bared and open

Dinner wakens senses

Plates pass to table

A feast moves to comfort

Friends and family

Round the table

Angels Touch The Sky

Angels Touch The Sky


Where has all the time gone

Our kids have moved on

My hair is no longer grey

And you my sweet evening rose

Have followed my twisted path

To this place in time

Our feet have made

Trails through life

Paths of simple times

Roads of great trespass

Mountain hills difficult

Speed bumps in life

Lights at the end of tunnels

Straight through to happiness

Not one regret

In my life with you

I’ll meet you in that place

Where the angels touch the sky

Run For The Horizon

Run For The Horizon

 

Naked and fighting

I was born to this world

My feet hit the floor

I made a run for the horizon

 

Trouble found me

I never backed away

No one got close

 

Naked and fighting

I was born to this world

My feet hit the floor

I made a run for the horizon

 

School was a bore

I left it for hard work

Never content with jobs

 

Naked and fighting

I was born to this world

My feet hit the floor

I made a run for the horizon

 

Working for myself

I found my way

Then she found me

 

Naked and fighting

I was born to this world

My feet hit the ground

I made a run for the horizon no more

 

All things changed

I found I could love

Then there were three

 

Naked and fighting

She was born to this world

Her feet hit the ground

She made a run for the horizon

 

 

 

 

Soon we were more

I had passed my legacy

But there was more

 

Naked and fighting

They were born to this world

Their feet hit the ground

All made a run for the horizon

 

My Harley was freedom

And I rode the road wild

Oats were sowed away from home

 

Naked and fighting

I was born to this world

My feet hit the ground

I made a run for the horizon

 

While away with another

I lost it all

My family my love gone

 

Naked and fighting

I gave myself to the world

My feet on the ground

I made a run for the horizon

 

 

Horses Decree

ROBERT THE ROAD

Robert was born

A son of a wanderer

Child of the night

Stole for his life

To earn his keep

Street imp and scamp

Ladies in his life

Around the red light

His mother to daisies

Knife in hand

Money to pocket

Drunk to the patch

Constable to trail

Life on the run

Death on the corner

Horse under saddle

Sixteen in the summer

Hooves to the road

Banging at night

Flashing behind

Balls in the air

Ground to face

Blood on the air

Dried on the road

Jail for first meal

Sweating to the robe

Swinging the sunset

Sixteen never seen

Childhoods end

A horses decree
