I hear Jim Croche in my head
he's "movin me down the highway"
and in my heart a common thread
I'm travelling my life's highway

A journey I am s'posed to make
feels as if it has begun
and I know not how long it takes
to meet at the setting sun

Stories that I made as friends
to always keep me company
now beg for friendship once again
to live again always with me

So I'm deciding who will come
as this journey now I take
who have shared the best and worst
and kindyly forgiven my mistakes

The Story of the Forgelands, yes
Silas with ring and pen,
Sol and Squatch indeed are here
Destiny as well is still my friend

Snowpaw the ancient magic cat
with Alec her mortal underling
will come with me to sunset red
and together we'l all sing

It shall be slow I'm sure.
With paths quite steep to take
but with this fellowship of friends
Who knows what strides we'll make

"And I'm gonna go there free"


" and I dream of her always,
even when I don't dream.
her name's on my tongue
and her blood's in my stream."

'Christmas in Prison' John Prine

OK, now you've got me singing Bad Bad Leroy Brown... Badest man in the whole... Anyway, (smiles) I do know what you mean about the importance of fellowship with friends and traveling the path together... Meaner than a junk yard dog... Good job. -Bob

I absolutely adore those three verses...and

It shall be slow I'm sure.

Left me smiling..Powerful words you got there sweetie. *hugs* You've outdone yourself yet again.

Your time is here.  Take one last look at it, then never come back.  This part of your life is already over...
