A Whisper of Winds Lying in the sun I feel the breeze blowing through the grasses and trees. It passes through the woodlands like a whisper carried on by the gossiping leaves. I don't know, but I think the wind stole the words I was trying to say. Words of you Spoken true It carried them away. I tried to chase them, I tried ...
Too Far Away From Here Outside my window, icy winds blow. Piles of white cover the city streets below. Streets void of life, cold, dark and unfeeling.

Love, Life and Good Roads Boy, do I love a good road. The sound of the smooth pavement under your wheels is like a song with a familiar melody and ever-changing lyrics. Rolling along, you hum the tune instead of singing because you never know what the next word will be. And sometimes, when going down the road, the tune will ...
