Summer Evenings 8/5/85

Soft summer evening, about me flow
With friends, family and neighbors around
I dream of the days to follow
Of new found friends, begin anew
Each morning I find a new world to explore
Searching for the differences of tomorrow
I watch the summer clouds moving
Hear the sounds of childrens laughter, and tears
Listen as the dogs of the neighborhood give voice
And the call of crickets begin as the light fades

Going Forward  8/5/85

Why do you haunt me
	like a ghost from an old movie
Will you never leave me to be
	at peace with the life I lead?
When will the day come
	when I am free from your influence
You come in my dreams at night
	I remember what should be forgot
From two worlds, it was once said
	So true, we will never travel together
I belong to a world you will never know
	and you are part of a place I will never see
Sing me no sad songs, in this new day
	rejoice in the renewal of tomorrows dreams
