Ballad of Deer Just as sweet and light as mom’s homemade cream, whipped to a perfect peak flowing in, out of dreams. Lifting in the Sunday sky no trees shall hinder flight, a child imagining he’s there upon that homemade kite. Bliss of innocent summers when we played the days away before a long line of firsts took simple joys away. Love that opens any door optimism rules all denial still with hints of innocence in his turning, twisting style. Ballads ever sung on key the songs whispered just for you and me. Cor |

Corinne, I'd say it was not only for the Deer it was a tribute befitting and describing the dear. Write on Keth Why do yesterdays remain and todays pass by ...unnoticed? Rex E. Alford |
