RHINESTONE COWBOY

(By: Karla Wagener, For Willy Nelson, ¨We are still alive¨!)

Something that touches people´s lives,

Like the breezes of the wind,

Softly, gently urging those lives to live,

To live in peace and love,

Inspirational songs,

Someone´s lonely story,

Loneliness often necessary

To develop inspiration.

Another story of curse filled sin;

The sorely looser;

The greatest to win;

Memories of helpless back roads gone lost;

All the past the defeated have known.

Hope in a future existence

As loved ones die;

Persistent ingenuity in our apocalyptic times.

The dark side of life, the beers and bars,

Fighting culminating in awful wars…

The precise word to wash away shame;

A breeze burning yielding in us,

Blazing aspiration, igniting purpose,

Strolling to propose us to know

What Grandpa used to say,

¨No one is so strong

As the converted Sinner¨!
