“SLEEPY RIVER” by Bill Charles ~~~~ Just slipping and sliding, on the ripples of dreams… Eyes closed just seeking, going somewhere, it seems… Sitting back seeing waters, reflections here, in my mind… Pools of thought I wonder, maybe not things, left behind… A new beginning perhaps, I’m here, one more time… Only wanting loves share, it’s a need I have, to rhyme… Come with me on my journey, take my hand to an adventure… Together drifting on a lazy day, anywhere, down this sleepy river… ~~~~ [This message has been edited by Bill Charles (02-02-2002 12:44 PM).] |
