Wind Rose Gently

The day it started calm enough
Breeze was bright and warm
Gently doing nothing
That would indicate a storm

Red gums were a shimmering
In the Murray's morning light
Everything was perfect in this bright
Morning spring light
Morning spring light

Made myself a piece of toast
Spread it with black gold
Brewed a pot of loose leaf tea
Madura strong and bold

Radio National
Was bleeding out the new's
As I sat and made my list of chores
To do before noon
Before noon

Taking for granted all the morning hours
Taking for granted all of springs sweet powers
Soaking in it up like this time will never bend
Until the end

Wind rose gently through the tree's
Wind rose gently and touched my knee's
Wind rose gently began to sing
Look at me

Because you never quite know when your time is done
Never quite know when your race is run
Never quite know but you live and learn
Never quite know but you take
Your turn

Twilight is approaching now
The whole landscapes a mess
Branches lying everywhere
Tree's relieved from the stress

Line up all your lucky ducks
Put them in a row
None of us ever know
Which way the wind will blow
The wind will blow

Taking for granted all the morning hours
Taking for granted all of springs sweet powers
Soaking in it up like this time will never bend
Until the end

Wind rose gently through the tree's
Wind rose gently and touched my knee's
Wind rose gently began to sing
Look at me

Because you never quite know when your time is done
Never quite know when your race is run
Never quite know but you live and learn
Never quite know but you take
Your turn
