POETRY CORNER
Here is a song on my new Dixie Chicks Album. I think it deserves to be the featured poem.
Travelin' Soldier - performed at the 2001 CMA Awards
(Bruce Robison)
Two days past eighteen
He was waitin' for the bus in his army greens
Sat down in a booth at a café there
Gave his order to the girl with a bow in her hair
He's a little shy so she gave him a smile
So he said would you mind sittin' down for a while
And talkin' to me I'm feelin' a little low
She said I'm off in an hour and I know where we can go
So they went down and they sat on the pier
He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care
I've got no one to send a letter to
Would you mind if I sent one back here to you?
CHORUS:
I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of the travelin' soldier
Our love will never end
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
When the letter says a soldier's coming home
So the letters came
From an army camp
In California then Vietnam
And he told his heart
It might be love
And all of the things he was so scared of
Said when it's gettin kinda tough over here
I think about that day sittin' down at the pier
And close my eyes and see your pretty smile
Now don't worry but I won't be able to write for a while
CHORUS:
I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of the travelin' soldier
Our love will never end
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
When the letter says a soldier's coming home
One Friday night at a football game
The Lord's Prayer said and the anthem sang
A man said folks would you bow your heads
For the list of local Vietnam dead
Cryin' all alone under the stands
Was the piccolo player in the marching band
And one name read and no one really cared
But a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair
CHORUS:
I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of the travelin' soldier
Our love will never end
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
When the letter says a soldier's coming home

A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS
Here is a song from FFX. Isn't it an awesome song? It's just me. (Ok, yes, I do have a lot of songs that seem to fit me, but hey, I can't help it!)
My heart was swimming
in words gathered by the wind
My voice bounded
into a cloud-carried tomorrow
My heart trembled
in the moon-swayed mirror
Soft tears
spilled with a stream of stars
Isn't it beautiful?
If we could walk, hand in hand,
I'd want to go
to your town, your home, in your arms
I dream of being
against your chest
my body in your keeping
disappearing into the evening
Words halted by wind are
a gentle illusion
A tomorrow torn by clouds is
the voice of a distant place
My heart that had been
in a moon-blurred mirror that flowed
Those stars that trembled and spilled
cannot hide my tears
Isn't it beautiful?
If we could walk, hand in hand,
I'd want to go
to your town, your home, in your arms
My dream of
your face
that I softly touch
melts in the morning
