let me just watch this one sink like a stone, too *sigh*
Edited on Sun Jul-16-06 07:31 PM by wildhorses
scotty and me

chasing the moon
you and i
when you were four
and i was forty-four

it was august
in the twilight
i was driving
because you were four

the windows were down
because it was hot
then there it was
this big white spot

so low in the sky
and shining bright
softly glowing
it lit up the night

it was so close
to you and me
and we chased it
because you asked me

and i drove because
i was forty-four
while you reached to grab it
because you were four

3. My dear wildhorses!
No thread of yours will sink, if I have anything to say about it!

I love those lyrics.......

Is it a song, or a poem?

Good to see you, baby! :loveya: :hug:

8. I, too, have had many threads sink like a stone.
Try the tumbleweed smiley the next time a thread gets no replies. I'm not sure what it accomplishes, but it makes me feel better. :)

10. dunno why...but, it made me laugh outloud...thanks
See them tumbling down pledging their love to the ground
Lonely but free I'll be found drifting along with a tumbling tumbleweed
Cares of the past are behind nowhere to go but I'll find
Just where the trail will wind drifting along with a tumbling tumbleweed
I know when night has gone that a new world's born at dawn
I'll keep rolling along deep in my heart is a song
Here on the range I belong drifting along with a tumbling tumbleweed

I'll keep rolling along...


*I guess it is more fun to tumble along than to sink like a stone...*
