Where Flowers Always Grow
(A True Story)
I wandered in the backwoods
With the cougar and the crow
Where hobos shared their campfire tales
Where no one else would go
I traveled through the eastern woods
Hopping trains in early dawn
Smoking cigarettes in boxcars
Crossing lines that can’t be drawn
I hitched my way to the northern woods
Finding flowers in their hair
First taste of ‘knowing’ peace and love
While music filled the air
I flew into the northwest woods
On giant silver wings
Sailed into the deep blue sea
In search of silver strings
Drove white lines to the southern woods
In an aimless flight to nowhere
Still longing for what lingered
Deep beneath the seraph’s dare
I wandered through the backwoods
With the cougar and the crow
Where hobos shared their campfire
Where flowers always grow
