The Walking Is Superb

Keep me from going to sleep too soon

Or if I go to sleep too soon

Come wake me up. Come any hour

Of night. Come whistling up the road.

Stomp on the porch. Bang on the door.

Make me get out of bed and come

And let you in and light a light.

Tell me the northern lights are on

And make me look. Or tell me clouds

Are doing something to the moon

They never did before, and show me.

See that I see. Talk to me till

I’m half as wide awake as you

And start to dress wondering why

I ever went to bed at all.

Tell me the walking is superb.

Not only tell me but persuade me.

You know I’m not to hard persuaded.

  3. The walking and the photos are superb – those clouds!
    It’s a premier league free weekend, an easier time to like Everton!
    Here’s hoping the walking is great all weekend – we’ve got rain today (where’s the snow?!) so it’ll be a muddy challenge tomorrow…
    Enjoy your weekend!

  4. Ah, 2Cellos! Superbly crazy guys. Did you take that sandhill crane photo with your iPhone? Zoomed? It looks sharp, as if it is hardly zoomed at all.

    1. I became an instant fan of 2CELLOS after the first video and the sandhill cranes walk on the trails with us and was standing right by me.🙂
