Winter gives up her secrets
As the ice begins to melt
And the swollen rivers run
Clouds of mist
Appear upon the windows
Somewhere a door opens
Down on the ocean floor
There a wave is building
Fixed upon the tidal forces
Break open the earth
See the fires burning
Molten rock flowing
Snowy coat wearies the mountains
Smoke from volcanoes rising up
In that wintry moment
Breath deeply the cold fresh air
Quietly it speaks of past fallen leaves, and
Foretells of trumpeting spring

Let It Go - with audio
audio link
Sleep, sleep, sleep
Silent violent dreams
In quiet murmurings keep
Awaken from thy schemes
Coffee chase the vitamins
Sink in the aspirin
Churning stomach
Headache tumult
Throbbing emotions
Reverberate
Keys in hand
Out the gate
Driving down the 405
Hollow stare
From my eyes
Seeking in
The sinking hole
Deep within
My darkened soul
Music soaring
In my ear
Foggy thoughts
Coming clear
Cold dull cloudy day
Beethoven Pathetique
Finds the way
In the head
Angry thoughts
In the heart
Hard dark shouts
No wherefores,
and never why
Hide out in a box and die
Feel not sorry for yourself
Take the fight
Down off the shelf
No my friend
Not as you suppose
Turn away now
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Soften the stance
Go slow go slow
Slowly face the friends
That you know
They are not to blame
For the trouble
And the pain
In this life one
Needn't be alone -
In the chaotic
Reds, black and brown
There is support
For you and me
A gathering of community
Ask and breath
Task receive
Try and see
Let it go, let it go, let it go
When thoughtless deed
And rage are gone
As the strength surfaces
Take courage and move on
Sleep, sleep, sleep
Silent violent dreams
In quiet murmurings keep
Awaken from thy schemes
Coffee chase the vitamins
Sink in the aspirin
Churning stomach
Headache tumult
Throbbing emotions
Reverberate
Keys in hand
Out the gate
Driving down the 405
Hollow stare
From my eyes
Seeking in
The sinking hole
Deep within
My darkened soul
Music soaring
In my ear
Foggy thoughts
Coming clear
Cold dull cloudy day
Beethoven Pathetique
Finds the way
In the head
Angry thoughts
In the heart
Hard dark shouts
No wherefores,
and never why
Hide out in a box and die
Feel not sorry for yourself
Take the fight
Down off the shelf
No my friend
Not as you suppose
Turn away now
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Soften the stance
Go slow go slow
Slowly face the friends
