There are miles and miles of tape
You can watch it, it’s been saved

There’s a rhythm to reclaim
Get tall and walk away

Maybe it’s the time to go

I could leave behind the snow
for a land of palm and gold

But there are miles and miles to go

There’s another chance to show
No need to crawl no more

Stay lighter, stay lighter

There’s a rythym, there’s a rythym

(from “There’s A Rythym” by Bon Iver)

Art by a local artist on display at the library for the month of April ♾️

The art was on display behind glass, so the picture isn’t the best. But I loved the art and wanted to share it.

Long Way song by Laney Jones

One day when the mountains shook
Your momma cried and there you stood
Long way long way long way long way
Looking back in the picture book

So now you're here grown and tall
But in the darkness you still feel small
Long way long way long way long way
To the light if you gotta crawl

Someday you're gonna fall
Down to the bottom with the rest of us all
And if you're alive kid you are young
Shake like a fever and give it all you got til it's gone

Wise man said you better watch your step
And mind the words that you say in your head
It's a long way long way long way long way
You get fat on what you're fed

Are you scared to give up
Are you frightened that you're not enough
Are you satisfied with the wine in your cup
Or is it another cheap little rush

Some day you're gonna fall
Down to the bottom with the rest of us all
And if you're alive, then kid you are young
Shake like a fever and give it all you got til it's gone

Some day you're gonna fall
Down to the bottom with the rest of us all
And if you're alive then kid you are young
Shake like a fever and give it all you got til you're gone

Art my spouse brought me from a local art festival. I wasn’t able to go with him and our kids, so he took photos and brought me back a few things.

Keeping the Light On (song by Joy Oladokun)

…all I know
is we can't, we won't let go
Keeping the light on…ain't easy
Keeping the fight on, so long, is hard to do

For all the times you feel the weight, there might just be a better way
Won't deny that it feels so hard
When the night gets so dark
Keep keeping the light on

And I'm tryin' to get better
Every day I chase the sun
And I pray it's worth the heartache
When I'm done

…all I know
is we can't, we won't let go
Keeping the light on…ain't easy
Keeping the fight on, so long, is hard to do

For all the times you feel the weight, there might just be a better way
Won't deny that it feels so hard
When the night gets so dark
Keep keeping the light on
Keep keeping the light on

Try to give a little, try to be a little,
try to see a light in the dark
…try to see a light in the dark
