...cloudy, Sunday morning...
easy like Lionel sang it
my mind caught a glimpse reminiscent
of a hundred nights ago
when I was a bell, and you rang it...

smooth and chilly, Sunday morning
BET jazz on the television....
and the announcer promised a set brought to me
by a True Believer in my religion...

no need to even open my eyes
my ears served as the portals
and my heart and soul were lifted heavenward
by the songs of the immortals

Bobby spoke truth through music
delivering the message in my native tongue
his voice so lilting, so beautiful
with each melody that was sung...

ooh Bobby made me weep
it was all that I could do...
on a cloudy, Sunday morning,
it was easy
to remember I was missing you....

Alyce......you know how to paint a beautiful picture...Its as if I can almost see you there allowing yourself to be enveloped by the melodious music as the treble clefs and whole notes permeates your mind and body. The song of many waters carrying you to the land of memories where you bask in yesterday, thinking about he who knows your needs and how to please thee....

Hey i think I got some Bobby Caldwell over here in the Lighthouse;)

Just a thought...
