Orlando Meditation / Listen to Ferron



Because grief will come in measures,
only grief alone will know
And you'll see it on your family,
on your own face it will grow
And they'll try to keep you hungry,
then they'll tell you to eat snow.
You know pride can be a moving thing
if we learn the strength of "NO!"

We are children in the rafters,
We are babies in the park,
We are lovers at the movies,
We are candles in the dark,
We are changes in the weather,
We are snowflakes in July,
We are women grown together,
We are men who easily cry,
We are words not quickly spoken,
We're the deeper side of try,
We are dreamers in the making, 
We are not afraid of "Why?"

I listened to the whole album today while watering my yard. It was good to reconnect with her songs.

Do you have it as a CD? I want to listen to it, too, but my copy is in album form. Will be buying it in CD form. For now, I can
listen to bits and pieces on YouTube. I also love her album called "Testimony" and her 2008 CD, "Boulder"

if music be a boulder
let me carry it a long while

I saw her in concert in Vancouver, B.C. That must have been in 1989.
