Evening Drive

E D (HolyEvaDedd)

A new song ....The title came to be after watching Jane Goodall's final interview released after her death on Netflix. She was asked about her beliefs about an afterlife. The first thing she said was ...."well ,there is either something or nothing". She tended to believe that there was something based on watching her second husband pass away. For me I guess the jury is still out. Some other ideas came from some podcast which I have been watching. You will find a reference to George Harrison and Yusuf/Cat Stevens 'On the the road to find out".

Lyrics:

Wondering thoughts 
Something or nothing 
Light or darkness 
A wonder to us all
The great unknown 
Is there something or just really nothing 

From seconds to minutes
Hour to hour
Living, breathing and observing
The world’s just passing us by
Memories of the past
Disrupting our present 
As we ponder the future 

Wondering thoughts 
Something or nothing 
Light or darkness 
A wonder to us all
The great unknown 
Is there something or just really nothing 

What is life
George once said
Is this all real
Or just a simulation 
No one really knows 
All the living 
On the road to find out

Wondering thoughts 
Something or nothing 
Light or darkness 
A wonder to us all
The great unknown 
Is there something or just really nothing

Something or Nothing

Take On Me Remastered (Unloved)

Hey… Thanks for dropping by. As a young boy, around sixty years ago, I used to like to listen to old people as they rambled on with stories about their lives. I really enjoyed those stories. I am an old man now, and I tend to ramble on, as well. This song is about that…. as I wake up to a chilly autumn morning. I have been busy ‘buttoning things up’ for winter. Collecting seeds, preparing garden beds, raking leaves, moving stuff inside, winterizing my home, getting winter gear ready, and other such sundry tasks, some of which I had forgotten about, like filling a tub with gardening soil and compost for planting seeds next spring. So I put the tub right by my front door. Ha. I have mixed feelings about heading into another long mountain winter. Throw old age into the mix and boy, am I having fun. I have also been sitting outside quietly, as flocks of birds fly by. Some flocks temporarily stop here to rest and feed, before winging off. It is fascinating to watch the dynamics of the flocks and how different kinds of birds interact. There are high flying geese, cranes and ducks overhead as well. All those birds are vocal, and when I am outside working, I tend to whistle along with them. They don’t seem to mind. The relative harmonious balance of it all is so refreshing to watch. Although a robin, or two, in the mountain ash always seems to be chasing other robins away from the berry laden tree. There are more berries in that tree than all those robins could ever eat, and I watch as the chased away robins sneak back into the tree. Some older birds die here in the yard, as they are no longer up for the long migration ahead. Sad to see. I often find one or two of them, dead each year, huddled peacefully in the deep grass, or hidden elsewhere. It has also snowed several times here in October… Hope you’re doing well. Mark
