'shake it loose and let it'

f

l

where it may...

and I stole this line
the other day
and made it
m

n

and yet?
perhaps my hair is falling down
to meet my chin in grin
and when
I let it fall
wherever it wants?

I am happy.


*with a thank you to Kris Kristofferson, for all the memories and songs he has gifted us, and hope there will be more soon. But mostly? thanks for
helping me
make it
through the night.

Reading you is much better than watching "...the shadows on the wall..."

Thank you for sharing this.

Thanks to each for reading, and sharing a musical moment.
Noah, this one song is a good starting point to experience Kris's musical/lyrical talent:
"Help Me Make It through The Night"

PERFECT!  Happiness is what we choose to make of it,  and of ourselves.
Nice Kacy~

but enjoyed the read anyway

Midnite...so often, a song is how I feel...and my feel is written in a song.  Enjoyed this so much, the poet and the song!
