To Here from There.
(From the Woodsman’s Notebook)

From the places I’ve been, to the place that I’m at. The places I’ve seen or some place I prefer to be.
Of those whom I have met in life’s journey along the way; nothing was there, at least nothing to make me stay.
To here from there is a mighty long road, rolling hills and dangerous turns everywhere I roam. From the forests to the deserts where life’s path lead, to the cities and townships along the sea, the search for the answer keeps calling me. To here from there is a question asked, to answer it though can be an overwhelming task. Is there a short cut, why is it so long? Well it’s like this we all have one of our own.
To here from there a path which can never be shared, until it’s path end with two people who care. It always starts out with two souls to bear. A new path starts from here to there.

What Did You Say?
(From the Woodsman’s Notebook)

I lived my life considered weak or strong,
yes my friend we did get along.
For those who turned to slap my face,
pity them for they will not see this place.
In this place where all beauty grows,
for those other pour souls they will never know.
Why would anyone go out of there way,
just to spread their hate and scorn for others to pay.
I turned my back without a word,
Why lower myself to only ill words.
I live my life the way God wants me to,
Why should I worry about you thought you knew,
Why do I care about your version of truth you view.
So about my time here and my autumn is gone,
It will be in heaven where I will sing my song.
And for those who choose not to see the light,
Blame me no more for your irresponsible sight.
