Quidam's View

Mystery Child

by Colleen Barry
Written 05-30-05

Bright boy with brighter eyes and even brighter dreams,

Plays for himself and all the others

Who leave their dread behind with the plucking of

Musical guitar strings.

 

Look my way bright eyed wonder

And play a tune for me,

‘Cause in your music I get lost

In a melodic sea…

And forget the pain that comes each day

That swallows and engulfs me.

 

So far away but close enough

Staring into those bright blue eyes

Is good enough for me.
