Sitting cross-legged, and with a carefree spirit, she summoned him over. Then had second thoughts. What if he was some mad man? It was too late now. He was making his way toward her, and she wasn’t in a position to get up quickly and run. Mustering all the courage she had, she waited for him to arrive.

“Where you motioning to me?” he asked.

“Um, no, I mean, yes, I mean, I don’t know what I was thinking.”

“I see. Well, I’ll be on my way then.”

“No, wait a sec. Maybe, this was meant to be.”

Maybe not….

We loaded up the bus, headed for the harbor

Tie dyed, flower power, forget about a barber

Surfboards waxed, we’re ready for the waves

Getting high on Mary Jane, gave us all the craves

Bags of chips to satisfy, Boone’s Farm strawberry wine

Watch out world, here we come, we’re feeling mighty fine

Jerry played his Fender Strat, put on quite a show

Last wave calls, time to pack, back in the bus we go

Days drag on, nights are gone, back to reality

Til Saturday, we’re on our way, living life, carefree

There are ways to travel o’er this bridge

Come now, I’ll show you the way

I’ve traveled it so many times myself

I know it by heart, you might say

There’s an ethereal feeling, each time you cross

On the other side, things to astound you

I promise you, you’ll feel quite light

With the magic, that flows all around you

Follow me, my weary friend

Across the bridge, beyond the trees

Where carefree days and butterflies

Make for magical memories

Innocence dances in morning so bright

Not a care to concern her, she’s one with the light

Donning flowers about her face

A child of beauty and elegant grace

Free as the elements, one with the wind

Swirling about, again and again

Taking it all, she is lost without care

Free as a butterfly, dancing on air

girl-996635_960_720Who is she
Hair blowing in the breeze
As she soars
Carefree and peaceful
Unafraid of the day

Higher, daddy, higher
She squeals
As a gentle push
Sends her flying
And the swing sways
With the gentle rhythm
Of the wind

Who is she
