Greener Pastures
Fleeing into dark night, I run
A truth not wholly accepted
A promise breaking as I write
One story ends, one rejected

I question my decisions now
Fleeing into dark night, I run
Rejection sets me on my way
As to wishes I did have one

The broken mirror reflects all
A dream remaining...

A Way To Greener Pastures
My words echo back to me
Off barren walls
Through empty halls
Find no hearing ears this eve
Except my own
I'm quite alone.

Soon perhaps I'll leave this place
For greener fields
'Cross distant hills
And never happen back this way
Except in thought
For lessons taught.

I'll follow perchance this gale
That birthed my soul
And kept...

If I were a single man, I would be longing for a mate;
If I were a married man, I would miss going out with a new date;
If I were a divorced man, I would not feel completely free;
If I were a widowed man, it would...

Feeling the rumble down the line,
greener pastures calling me there.
Daydreams of love and golden times,
feeling the rumble down the line,
conjures visions of love divine.
Grooming the need to go somewhere,
feeling the rumble down the line,
greener pastures calling me there.

Feeling the rumble down the line,
calling me home...

Lured across the world are we,
to setting sun, ancient sea,
privileged ones so carefree
lured to pastures greener?

Wander led the core of me,
to foreign suns Pharisees.
Naiveté fueled, footloose, free,
lured to pastures greener?

Herded child of Galilee
primed-pumped, then set free
fool's gold seeking protégée
lured to pastures greener?

Stop searching, surely, you...

GREEN  PASTURES


Over the mountain towards
yonder hearts have below-
young hearts have strove,
for years untold.

They've slung their packs
and cut their paths,
for legends still untold.

Chasing that elusive dream
from corner to corner-
they never get much older.

Yet, then again
there's those who've 
caught a dream-
and for those Souls,
Life is a...

You would be surprised as I am so sure you would be
As with each time you realized it's the Lord that you see
Just out of nowhere when you are expecting it the least
Oh how He does care, His Love for you has never ceased

You would...

Greener Pastures
People think the other side of the pasture is greener
For some it may be true
For others, there is no other side; they are too afraid to go for it 
And end up staying put, brewing in the mix of their forfeit 

Some continue to look...
