this corner of the earth

Like every humming bird and bumblebee
Every sunflower, cloud and every tree
I feel so much a part of this
...
This corner of the earth is like me in many ways
I can sit for hours here and watch the emerald feathers play
On the face of this I'm blessed
When the sunlight comes for free
I know this corner of the earth it smiles at me

to the place that has been my home
and to you who have been my family

berimbau chamou













and every time...I wonder how I could have stayed away for so long
swearing to never let it happen again

by the river

you looked at me over a table in small new york cafe (we just discovered it that day...just weeks before we're leaving) and said:
'we'll never have this time back'
tears in your eyes
I think it's the first time I've seen you cry

a few days later I was looking at us in the river
you were there, and they were too
with a tighter grip on the bottle, I was thinking 'I will never forget this'...
half of my heart jumped in the river with you

time will...

I'm just waiting for a 90-mile water wall
to take me out of your view

I'm praying for a trap door trigger...
