Track inspired by a Haiku from Murakami Kijo [1865-1938]
'Although there is the road,
The child walks
In the snow.'

Winter Haiku 'Although there is the road.'

Our cover version from the recording by Peter Gabriel

SILVER

silver on my fingers
sliver in my heart
I stopped waiting for your call
you've got your eyes on a bigger prize
you've turned into someone I don't recognize
silver in my eyes
shiver in my mind

silver in my eyes
shiver in my mind
I've always been 
2nd place
you left me in the dust of your parade
I guess it's hard to find
someone who feels the same
silver in my eyes
shiver in my mind

just an afterthought
I'm always there
not the 1st choice
someone who cares
you only miss me when
no ones there
to fan your flame

babe I'll light your fire
all the same

i’ve got my reasons

what may look like indecision
that’s my mind set on preview
when the past impairs my vision
I’ve got to sort through
Accumulated nonsense
to the clear day I saw you

Get this understood
i’ve got my reasons
such as they are
They may not be good
but i’ve got my reasons
they’re you
you determine what is real
you decide how I feel

If at times my focus wanders
I will always come around
I’m not the type who squanders
the good things i have found
I appreciate your patience
I’ll repay it, pound for pound

Get this understood
i’ve got my reasons
such as they are
They may not be good
but i’ve got my reasons
they’re you
you determine what’s at hand
you decide where I stand

I am here to confess
I can’t always express
the reasons for what I do
But know I do - love you

I appreciate your patience
I know it’s under strain
As I struggle to explain
myself to myself

I've Got My Reasons

Hi guys all right? I'm re-releasing this sound which is an old sound of mine that the old recording didn't look as good as I would have liked. So I decided to re-record and see how it turned out.. One day I still intend to record this sound with a full band.. But until then, I'll leave you with this version of The Alchemist. Hugs!

Beautiful Morning - Peter Stocking

dill i et Vannglass

In memory of violinist Jennifer Spiwak (1974-2001)

I dream of your dream
Inside a drop
Of rose water on your cheek

Rise with the sun
Rise with the sun
I dream, I dream

Right now, if only for yourself
I believe you will

Nowhere near the sea
On sacred ground
Spread across the tundra
Marching to the vision in our heads

Didn’t you see the North Star shining brightly?
Can’t stop till the goddess calls

"Did you see behind the raging star? 
I will give to you and you will find your heart
So you can bend your eyes
Did you think about the dreams 
The nightmares you had? 
With the sage old lady dancing looking sad 
What she said to you
     'All the light inside is out and outside  is nil 
      It’s a beautiful appearance now and for all! 
      So now you lift your eyes! 
      There is no other way outside!'"


Cold down to the bone
But we’re pressing on
Something warns inside us
Thirteen hundred miles across the E∂

Stay awake until
The frozen river feels our feet
Just think, son, of the goddess
Think, son, of the goddess
No stop till the goddess calls

Beautiful Morning - Peter Stocking
