Green River...

 Drifting, drifting, drifting

Around the rock we go

Where is the river taking us

Sometimes I have to know

I know where we are going

The destination clear as mud

But corners that obstruct our view

Make us all land with a thud

Well the river is always flowing

Sweeping us around the bend

Like it all or fight the flow

Are messages we send

Weaving round the boulders

Like bees around a hive

The bubbling water runs at speed

And always feels alive

Drifting down Green River

I long to stop and think

To ponder just where we might go

Before the sky turns pink

For at the fall of darkness

We must be safe and free

The lights of stars and fire flies

Are shining through the trees

Drifting down we stop and rest

And look back at our travels

Our memories of places met 

Are lying in the gravel

In the light a new day dawns

As we drift down the stream

We dare to dance, we dare to run

And always dare to dream

We break ground on our new place in Wanaka.  You could say it's the house of our dreams.  Everything is up for design in this place, and I mean everything.  Such a rush it is to get going on this project... it's gonna be life changing.
