Slow walking tortoise yoke Oceans of unspoken timeless Unknown acts broken How can this be happening to These young eyes Weeping age old sighs In the suns rays Long days Walking for a respite From the old ways Chestnuts falling under foot To mark the season’s trees’ Tall canopies No one ever saw the perfect Flatland sanctuary Deep within a bright light Spinning in the night Such a sight For closed eyes Walking with a spirit rising high On the mountain of a Deep etched line It’s a clear cut sign That all is well Even if it only shows through on this Day of stellar reverberation And repose Merrily we roll along (Merrily we roll along, Merrily we roll along) Riding on a song In the space in-betweening The moments that have meaning Twist your waist As you walk Slow your pace As you talk It’s a mystery revisited Again and again That the lines between families Won’t let them be friends Lunch chatter won’t matter When the year closes down But the round-eyed bow-tied Stranger turned riptide Left with the crowd and Moved uptown What’s this Singer said Oooooh She never knew how to talk to you Why now? (Singer said) Now is not the time Play a tune It’s sublime Lose your thoughts In a rhyme Ok Take it on a bus no fuss Keep it quiet Simply notice he said Who gets in your head Take a step Cross a street It’s the people you meet Not the books you’ve read Who will calm the inner dread Simply wait instead No rush to wed an idea Take it slow There is nowhere to go Rug pulled out beneath the Concrete estuary They would have been Old friends by now Laughing reminiscing But instead somehow Their paths never crossed Not one more time Play a tune it’s sublime Lose your thoughts In a rhyme Ok

Here's a story that I’ll tell you Well it may not be believed But it's time for for it to surface ‘Cause the facts have been retrieved Nothing fancy nothing long Just the scoop I must relay If I don’t the world won’t crumble But the truth would will be delayed So here it is in full Nothing hidden or removed It’s the story of a couch God used My sister’s soul to soothe It’s an unlikely story of a couch That went too far And it led her in a circle To the Tree of Joshua It led her in a circle to the Tree of Joshua It starts with a couch that went too far Roy called Marsha Marsha called Hank There was a shower and a UPS delivery tank Paul was agreeable The realtor complied And the next thing you know Aunt Rose’s couch was on a ride Now Marsha’s happy as can be She followed guidance to a T She found a cabin for an ancient couch In Joshua Tree It’s an unlikely story of a couch That went too far And it led her in a circle To the Tree of Joshua It led her in a circle to the tree of Joshua It starts with a couch that went too far And in the wee hours of night when the moon shines free You can hear my sister humming so peacefully, “Some may go to Mecca some to Galilee But Aunt Rose’s couch took me to Joshua Tree” It started with a couch I thought it went too far But that couch revealed the pathway To the Tree of Joshua

Rockefeller Center in the snow in the snow Only fifty cents now in the snow in the snow Went to buy a chestnut Only had for one Rockefeller Center in the snow in the snow Think I'll get a pretzel Fire in the road Man inside a Viking suit hello hello Won't you talk to me New York The museum is old Only fifty cents Just enough to buy Sixth Avenue The subway's cold and wet today Central Park's my friend And if you need a friend today I will hold your hand Rockefeller Center in the snow in the snow Everything's ahead of me There's nothing that I know Strangers bob and tread Paths entwine like thread Rockefeller Center One more chestnut Only one more chestnut today I think I'll go home now anyway Rockefeller Center in the snow in the snow Only fifty cents now in the snow in the snow Went to buy a chestnut Only had for one Rockefeller Center in the snow in the snow
