Richard's Road ~ a daughter's song for her father~

Walking Down
Richard’s Road
A salty breeze
Welcomes him home
The lost returns
A child again
A bare footed heart and Soul 



Pretty Roadside flowers

Your tiny heads bent in

Evening Prayer

Kindly remember our names
As your fragrant blessings fill the air


Setting sun’s
Rosy glow
Pouring through
Weathered Birch trees
Rose Coloured light
Flickers through
Warming leaves and his  memories


Pretty Roadside flowers

Your tiny heads bent in

Evening Prayer

Kindly remember our names

As your fragrant blessings fill the air


Evening Falls
Soft and cool
Taking his hand 
They walk once more
Down over cliffs
Red and high
Yes they walk once more
Down to Richard’s Shore


Pretty Roadside flowers

Your tiny heads bent in

Evening Prayer

Kindly remember our names

As your fragrant blessings fill the air
