england dan and john ford coley's "love is the answer"
i shift my gears into mellower slow music in the fall...add more easy flow music...it takes me back to crisp autumn evenings in high school...girl's basketball practice...lungs stinging as i ran to town to do chores...yellow jackets attacking my bottle of coke as i stood behind the gym chatting up a girl i had a crush on...the slow dance of leaves falling from the maples...school dances and hanging outside with the guys who were too cool to dance...reading at a courthouse lawn bench in the last warm days left til spring...homemade apple butter on bread taken right from the oven...the daydreams that were so full of adventures to come...
who knew all these years later i still daydream about more adventures...become a captain crunch stomping through the leaves...find little bits of sun to sit in and read and am that same girl who knows as i did then "love is the answer"...
