[just like this train] | newburyport, ma.

i'm always running behind the time

just like this train

shaking into town with the breaks complaining

a sneak peek of the commercial project i am working on for the very talented urgent need handworks

[on the ice] | newburyport, ma

in winter when the biting breezes

blow and the water freezes,

then it's time, it's time to go

skating on the ice.

choose a day that's bright and clear,

bundle up from toe to eear;

it's the time, the time of year

for skating on the ice

i perch upon the snowy rocks

and pull on both my woolen socks;

i lace my skates and tie them fast

and then i'm up and off at last.

i cannot make a figure eight

i still have trouble going straight

but just the same i  love to skate,

to ice skate on the ice.
