Thought I’d share the poem that’s on the CD sleeve of ‘A New Leaf’, with listeners who have chosen to buy the digital download version. That’s the one drawback of an otherwise great way to acquire music, you miss holding the sheath that wrapped the music itself – the artwork, the pullouts, artist comments and other valuable & sometimes non-sensical trivia that adds that little more to listening pleasure! This poem was written partly as a parallel to the composition ‘Home’ on the album.

the wind cradles me
I journey over waters
in their cupped palms
lands, peoples

cities on glossy postcards
transform into zip codes
in the cool land of maple and tulip
my inner landscape crossed by trails
of mango and jasmine

night falls
it is the same moon that greets me
the one from another land
a song plays from seasons before
a new leaf unfurls
like a phrase on a staff

I am home
