slowly now we begin our decent
filled with a chill, that came and went.
As the day draws near, apprehension and fear, give way to this love, this life, this year.
Enjoy the snow, as it lightly falls,
enjoy the morning as it slowly un-thaws, following the path of wandering paws.
Where they lead, we shouldn't care, looking for her in the chill morning air.
So we lay down slowly and arise even slower...we've earned that much, planting seeds as sowers.
The harvest is ripe, the workers are few, good men who will fight...like me and you.
