ever step outside and find a spring wind blowing in your face, and smell the snow melting, and see a thunder cloud coming in, and just want to hug and kiss someone and lay on a rock by the river and close your eyes because the sun's reflection is just a little bit blinding?
that's how I feel today.

I've lived a while without you,
damn near half my life,
I no longer see our unborn children
born to you, my unwed wife;
but yesterday I had a vision,
beneath the tree where we once talked
of an old couple burning their love letters
so the children won't be shocked.
Oh, love calls-like the wild birds,
it's another day.
A spring wind blew my list of things to do
away.
