lyrics

99 Greens to Ireland
Molly Mae and Adrian
Flag decals of your broken roads
Photographs of Icicles
Rolling down to Hickory
Loch that is changing Keys
Talking to Louisiana
She keeps reminding me

Mandolin plays the blues guitar
The saxophone plays the strings
I cannot forget saint Mercury
or his heels of the messenger wings
I will fly with California
Sail to the Rainbows End
Sit upon my rock of Air
The letters for to send

I paint a flower with a hammer
Drive to a distant place
Where gold and silver coincide
and the guns are shooting lace
The radio sings a lullaby
The blues are colored red
I close my eyes and fall away
Catching thoughts outside my head

Seventeen is a number
At least that is what they say
Patience rolls like thunder clouds
All changing every day
I do not talk in numbers
I cannot feel this land
Inside this house
All the walls are made of sand

Radio sings a lullaby
Saxophone plays the wheels
I close my eyes and I fall away
Feel the wings upon my heels

Utah Green Asheville, North Carolina

Each song is different and stands on its own, but can be generally categorized as funny and quirky, complex, emotional, and reflective. There is wonderful imagery in her poetry that stimulates one's imagination and it can be very moving in a positive sense. It is sometimes a challenge to capture and comprehend the multiple meanings of some of her verse, but it's worth the effort.
