LEARNIN' THE SHIP
I'm learnin' the Ship - how to be a good mate -
How to hit the decks fast in the mornin'...
When to climb to the nest and go peerin'
Far off to horizons where dreams
Are just bornin'
I'm tryin' to write the way I learn to sail -
To follow each wind as it moves me...
To let her go north to let her go south -
East or west - with no mind -
Let it all be
To see words as sails that will carry me home -
To want Home like sea - like a sailor...
To read from each beat of my heart
Like a chart that my Captain can see
And will teach me
I'm learnin' the Ship - how to write real well -
To reach for the stars in the evenin'...
How to climb to the nest navigatin'
Far off to some sea where some dreams
Are a'waitin'
Some sea where these dreams'
Are a waitin....
