Its a Long Way Home

  It’s a long way home Through the woods and greens And the sparkling blue. It’s a long way through the yellow fields, and wind like   cotton flowers over the sky it’s a long way home to the west end, across the bridge, and into the clouds.   When you walk alone, Through the roads like pythons at rest, you learn to dance Your hands, your robes fly like seagulls over the infinite sea   A long way, Through the years marked over your tree of life as faces, dates and moments. Through the loves you buried And others you died of.   A long way before the rain And through the flood   A long way, a long way, of purple skies and red earths Through the strings of guitar And the music of the mountains Through the forest and moods of life in its variety A long, long way, Such a long way, for the final turn that would take you home.
