We were on our way out west
I started a penciled masterpiece
you finished the rest
when your hands didn't occupy the wheel.
Flatland surrounded us as dimming sun rays
seeped through the moistened atmosphere
you said lets stop and take a walk
but you said we couldn't talk.
But don't you know
I think about you all the time
what you think
and how you climb
that stairway up to Heaven
I keep going
up and down
down and up again
searching for truth
and hoping to see you on the other side.
You seemed so cathartic
who was I to break the intimacy you had with the painted sky
really it was God who pulled you through that dirt-plastered field
not you or I.
But don't you know
I think about you all the time
what you think
and how you climb
that stairway up to Heaven
You keep going
up and down
down and up again
searching for truth
and hoping to see someone on the other side.
And we are such wanderers
never settling in our created nests
I try to take a patient rout
while your seeds of giving take root.
But we shall see where our winds take us
maybe to a Louisiana cook fest
maybe to Virgina's best
or possibly crossing across inked lines and on to forbidden pages.
But don't you know
I think about you all the time
what you think
and how you climb
that stairway up to Heaven
We keep going
up and down
down and up again
searching for truth
and hoping to see Him on the other side.
And we were wanderers
passing by
knowing that it is so hard
telling this tainted tale
when you're God's travailing bard.
