Scott Whitby, 2023
Drink some whisky
Play the guitar
And write a song
Smoke a cigar
Wonder about tomorrow
When the song's all wrong
And yesterday's gone
After a night too long
Smell the smoke
Feed the fire
Talk to God
Say a little prayer
Mourning doves
Sit and coo
Do they worry
About what to do?
Sun sets red
Geese take flight
They are honking
With all their might
Drink more whisky
While the fire dies
Embers popping
New stars in the sky
Wonder about tomorrow
Can I fix this song?
If yesterday's gone
And the night's too long
The geese are resting
The dove is quiet
God, You listened
Our good night
The cigar died
Embers fade
God just winked
Something He made
