I leave my room and head outside To begin my journey Down the old gravel road An endless expansion of corn The coyotes distant howls The brisk air, I walk at a brisker pace Past the old-fashioned church With its white picket graveyard Beautiful in daylight, eerie at night Through the woods Over some hills Across a stream The bright reflection of the moon signifies my destination It's beauty portrayed across the canvas that is the pond I visit at night, because only then can my thoughts be as clear as the water. I sit in silence for a moment Pondering what I came for Before I turn around and head back Down the old gravel road

The old gravel road
I leave my room and head outside To begin my journey Down the old gravel road An endless expansion of corn The coyotes distant howls The brisk air, I walk at a brisker pace Past the old-fashioned church With its white picket graveyard Beautiful in daylight, eerie at night Through the woods Over some hills Across a stream The bright reflection of the moon signifies my destination It's beauty portrayed across the canvas that is the pond I visit at night, because only then can my thoughts be as clear as the water. I sit in silence for a moment Pondering what I came for Before I turn around and head back Down the old gravel road
