Long ride home...

I imagine
sipping cocktails
in the riviera
on a veranda
but here I am
A.A meetings
I like to get high
I forget the low
falling short again
a recovering drunk
It's a long ride home
brush yourself off
and start again
kick the dust
It's only a bend
in the road
hangovers are no fun...

From a distance...

Had a dream
seeing from a distance
coast to coast
land and sea
the lush of green
and blue waters
traveling places
rolling with the tide
with spirits
of the sky
westward bound
as never before
places I've never been
It was possible
full of possibilities
I knew then
there was more
much more to come...
