Ride Like the Wind

She rides
She rides
Like the wind
To be seen again


She rides
She rides
Like the wind
To be seen again


She rides
She rides
Like the wind
To be seen again

On the day of her memorial service
We walked to the top of the hill
To honor her memory

But the memory 
Like her 
No longer walks
These sacred grounds

But
The tree blew
The birds flew
and the fly knew

But the memory
Like her
No longer lives here

Because she is alive
and she is more than alive
She is the I am everywhere

She rides
She rides
Like the wind
To be seen again
