A Measure of Life
Sample Lyrics for A Measure of Life
It's a late gold autumn eve and I'm fingering through
aged bottles of memories in the cellar of my mind.
I get the urge to pull a cork and pour out the happy times.
To savor what made some days seem so good. Hhmmmm.
The fragrance of lilacs blooming on a moist and warm spring day.
Cold watermelon dripping off my hot summer face.
Splashing in a warm puddle covered with pasty mud.
Tongue stuck out to catch raindrops falling from the clouds above.
Making lifelong best friends on the first day of school.
Learning to read and write words and to swim in a pool.
Sleepless wide eyed nights with visions of romance.
Holding my special one close for our first slow dance.
Eyes embracing eyes that warmed our hearts and minds
A breathless and timid first kiss that forever will be mine.
Happy paws hopping back and forth at the rough days end.
Hugging and holding my best four legged friends.
All the gifts of Spirit that made life so bright,
These are the special treasures and true measure of life.
