lyrics

Lone Jack Pine

I am a lone jack pine
tall and green with no visible roots
growing from an old dark rock
or the driftwood that bobs on the surface
of the faceted waves
thrown by a wind from the south
on a crisp summer day

I am a lone jack pine
tall and green
the water's too shallow for swimming
knees scraping the sand and hands full of algae
my hair catches on pebbles and the gravel below

A local poet describes herself
she says, I've lived here longer than anywhere else
Is that the best I can hope for?
I'm the driftwood the bobs on the surface of the faceted waves
is it the best I can hope for?
I'm a lone jack pine
