Kiss Me.......Sixpence none the Richer

I just love this song. It came out in 1998 when I was still trying to get back my youthful inocence, well that was my state of mind then. I think we all go thru this phase, before we wake up and realise we have to go on to the next stage in life. There are 3 phases for us women, Maiden, Mother and Crone. I don't thinkk any of us appreciate the Maiden stage until it is way behind us. I was to busy looking ahead to the Mother stage. When you look again, your kids are getting out of the way, and you are left with this space to think about your own life. The thing that kicked me into the Crone stage was menopause at age 48, and the news I was about to become Grandma. Then things change...

But I think I am gonna take a closer look at the changes that I went thru between age 40-50. This was the time I wrote all the drippy schoolgirl poetry, and was actually able to reconnect with my Maiden phase for a while (yeah, I must have looked strange to some people!) I am gonna copy and paste this song, and hope it comes out right. Last night I copied some other lyrics and they all ran together....

KISS ME

Kiss me out of the bearded barley.Lightly, beside the green, green grass.Swing, swing, swing the spinning step.You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress.Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight.Lead me out on the moonlit floor.Lift your open hand.Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance,silver moon's sparkling.So kiss me.Kiss me down by the broken tree house.Swing me high upon its hanging tire.Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat.We'll take the trail marked on your father's map.Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight.Lead me out on the moonlit floor.Lift your open hand.Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance,silver moon's sparkling.So kiss me.Kiss me beneath the milky twilight.Lead me out on the moonlit floor.Lift your open hand.Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance,silver moon's sparkling.So kiss me.So kiss me.So kiss me.So kiss me.

oh shit it din't come out right. I'll have to write it out and type it properly...but not today...I don't want to lose what I wrote before, so it will stay like this for now......Computer Challenged in the Ocean State
