Finding an old friend…
Am brought back 20 yrs in an instant
The chords open up memories to a place and time
To an island of calm, sanity, peace, creativity and connectedness
While the inner war raged on between personal growth and self imposed chaos
“A path lost for years that lead us thru” Moody Blues
I walked away from this path, almost forgetting of it’s very existence
As each chord is played and lyric is sung… The words come so easily
I remember without remembering I remembered
With out remembering I forgot
“20 years now where’d they go
20 years, I don’t know” Bob Seger
None of that matters
With out judgment or ruling
I am here again; the songs never knew I left
They waited for me to open the four doors again.
Through the doors I find an old friend
