My Treasure Box My tresure box is full of friends who were once strangers, unexpected beauty upon the path and those who travel with me in the suitcase of my heart. These treasures have brought more meaning and beauty into this wonderful life God has given me.

This is a folk song I wrote last summer while visiting the mountains in Medicine Bow National Forest, WY.  I find myself singing it often when I am at home in nature.  

I went home to the mountains

to rest my weary soul

6 long years of traveling

sure can grow old

I went home to the river

Gave myself a swim

Dove deep down and came up new

My life now to begin

I went home to the forest

found my souls delight

built myself a campfire

and sang into the night

I went home to the meadow

Fell down on my knees

gave my thanks and offering

and fell in peaceful sleep

I went home to the sky

waved this world good-bye

Spread my wings, took off flight

and flew into the light...
