Lyric Gardens Of Autumn

Hold tight.
Find a way to make it right.
Don t let others dictate what you ll do.
So many options, so many opinions—
You ve got to live with what you ll do.

And it s not as east as I thought it would be,
But nothing worthwhile ever is.

On a plate so full of life-foods,
It s easy to consume too much to chew.
Be careful what you choose to do.
After years of living on the lam,
She says goodbye to face up to her past,
To live a life of peace at last.

And it s not that easy; she knew it wouldn t be,
But nothing worthwhile ever is.

I ve found an answer in the gardens of autumn,
Shrill truth in an eagle s cry,
And in mountain s song of calling,
Atop eternal vantage points,
We stand above the din of loss below
And keep it close to heart as we head home.

Fortnight—
Time to finally get it right.
No more planning what you re gonna do.
Words turn to action,
Alleviate distractions.
There s light near the end.
You re finally through.

And it s proved as easy as you knew it would be,
As all that s worthwhile ever is.
