Harmony Green's blog! This blog highlights the music and poetic, liquid lyrics of Dan Fogelberg. I listen to a shuffled song on my iPod and write an inspired piece from that. The song is listed under 'labels' at the bottom of each entry. Enjoy!

With the Sing Songs
She is soft and sweet
Talented and twisted in
the most amazing
ways
A smile that sings out
and soothes
me
A laugh that makes me
sing in
unison with hers
But, she is blind to the
truth of her
own beauty and
her own worth
From her beginnings....
her
gestation and her
birth
She has been all she
has ever been
meant to
be
How can I help her
to see the truth
I so easily
see
How can I cut
the
cords that keep her
bound
So that she can be
free
Blind to the truth of
her
mighty and fierce
vibe
The tender voice that
radiates as she
sits
behind her
guitar
Open and honest
in the vibration of
her
fingers sliding
over the strings
Does she know the
truth of the joy
she brings.....
to me?
Joy I envibe to the
center of her
weary
soul
Feel me, friend, there
holding you
If you are blinded
I will be your eyes
If you can not
sing,
let me be your
voice
You can attempt to
push me away
But, woman, you really
got no choice
Cuz I love you from
a place where
we need no eyes
No hellos
No goodbyes
No words
In the silence
with the sing songs of
the birds
We will figure it
all out

The Way of the Wolf
Let me be as the
wolf
Hunkered down in
my den
Or insulated in the
snow
Buried... when the cold
winter winds
blow
Let me howl as the
wolf
Signals to my precious
pack
As we welcome the night
Under a brilliant moon
Hear the rhythm of our
midnight
tune
Let me love as the
wolf
Protecting and keeping my
family safe
In the face of danger
I am brave
Running with the leader of
the pack
Hungry bellies growling, our
prey we track
Let me live as the
wolf
Let me stay in my natural
habitat
There's no reason for you to
attack
Do not destroy my forest
home
We so need to freely
roam
Imagine if someone took your
home away
How high a price would you
pay
To be allowed to live and
stay
In the place you call
home
Let me thrive as you
humans thrive
We can coexist
Let me own my habitat
natural
It is also my right to
live
Under the moon
Under the stars
Let us heal our massive
scars
We can live in peace apart
As we heal
our
wounded hearts
