scraps of memory
Going through old files in neglected directories I found "song in progress.doc" created back in 2007. Here are its contents.

From a book never written
By a man too afraid
I have cut these words to give to you
For the difference they might make
Stolen from the Dream Lord’s keep
Where all lost words must lay
I’ve bound them in lover’s skin
For you to find as you may
You are the answer
To my well settled prayer
Uttered too soon
Into lonely empty air
I must quest and I must wander
I must do and I must dare
But I’ll return to you
My glory to share
_____________
Might do something with it. We'll see.
