.
Pour up a cup
and sit in the light.
It’s past time
for forgetting.
Spent too long
just passing time,
as if this life
were never ending.
So many sorrows,
so many trials,
not enough horses,
and not enough miles
to ride.
I don’t want to spend
my life
just getting by.
Sit in the trees,
outside in the morning.
Sip my coffee,
enjoy the day,
before this world
gets warm and roaring,
and the fire burns away.
The sky is blue
up there above,
and down here
we know
there are tears,
but there is love.
Not enough horses
and too much others stuff,
makes it seem
like we’re missing the point.
I don’t want to spend my life
just getting by.
Not enough horses,
and too many miles to ride.
Taking it all in stride.
Love it every time.
Look in the sky
and see the signs.
Sitting here
in morning light.
