Walk Away

Down Memory Lane


Music: Walk Away by Matt Monro




Lyrics

Walk away, please go
Before you throw your life away
A life that I could share for just a day
We should have met some years ago
For your sake I say
Walk away, just go.
Walk away, and live
A life that's full
With no regret
Don't look back at me
Just try to forget
Why build a dream that cannot come true
So be strong, reach the stars now
Walk away, walk on.
If I heard your voice
I'd beg you to stay
So don't say a word
Just run, run away.
Goodbye my love
My tears will fall
Now that you've gone
I can't help but cry
But I must go on
I'm sad that I after searching so long
Knew, I loved you, but I told you
Walk away, walk on, walk on

Moths and the lure of light


Moths are engaging!  Often they don't care when they see the flame ... and too late, when their wings are beaten.

In my readings, I vividly  recall something like moths navigate by the light of the moon. They then fling themselves into flames because they think they are headed toward the moon's light.

Well, at least they die in ecstacy!

Music in my mind:  'Tonight' from the musical romantic drama West Side Story, music by Leonard Bernstein & Stephen Sondheim. 


Today, the minutes seem like hours
The hours go so slowly
And still the sky is light
Oh moon, grow bright
And make this endless day endless night

Tonight!

Autumn a second spring



"Autumn is a second spring, when every leaf is a flower." 
~ Albert Camus ~


Tchaikovsky's "Autumn Song" for meditation, from the Seasons (October), with Vladimir Tropp. Uploaded by pianoushko. Accessed 1 March 2019.  (It happens that in Australia the season of Autumn starts on March, a reason I created this post March, not October.)  




 Autumn, the mellower season!  I must take time to sit and watch the leaves turn.
