about

A poem by Max Golightly put to music by his grandson Sam Golightly. Sam then wrote the second verse and asked his sister Emily to compose a third verse.

lyrics

Time rings us all, as surely as the tree
With lines that meet to mark the growing soul
Sorrow and joy concave us by degree
Time rings us all, as surely as the tree.

Love plants us all, as saplings in the spring
With leaves and flowers that change as time grows old
Green fades to grey, yet leaving sacred seeds
Love plants them all, as saplings in the spring.

Death roots us all, in paths that wind unseen
Beneath the snow they yet grow evergreen
Earth calls us home with loving gravity
Death roots us all, the seeds and evergreens
