Good Morning J

Sunday afternoon in Fall

Listening to Sonny Terry and Bobby McGee

Thinking of being with you last night

Sipping on my leaded glass of whiskey

Mellow is my mood

Thinking how warm your hands were

As I held my lighter

To your cigarette

Was I glad I’d met you

Baby you know I have no regrets

Our conversation was so easy

Like intimate friends of years

Your words spilled out quickly

As rain on a winters day

I left everything aside

As I held you at the departure gate

I whispered to you

Hey, your going to be ok.

You’re safe now , you’re welcome to stay.

Yeah it’s a grey Fall Sunday

And I know the Summer sun’s

Never going away.
