Bye Bye Blackbird - Kevyn Lettau

Color Of Love

Michael's Home

This story has two parts. Part one; I love my ex-husband family very much. Since we we're first dating they all embraced me and I quickly became a family member. I wrote this poem while visiting his sister Ellen about the wonderful house they grew up in.

Part two; we have a large tiger cat named Gulliver who has the loudest purr know to any feline! He lulls us to sleep and settles my nerves with his music! I had wanted to use his talents on a song and this was the right time. The bed of the track is Gulli's magic voice!!! I was able to tell the story of Michael's childhood home and include an important element of our home!

Lyrics

Going back to your house
To see where you grew up

The room you slept and dreamt in

Kitchen table
Plates and forks
And folks that fed you

The mirrors that watched you turn
From a young boy to a young man

The floor supporting
The door jam charting growth spurts

The four walls absorbed

A house filled with the commitment to stay
Bound by love and loyalty
The sense of permanence and peace

Where sorrows are swallowed up
By the deep seeded history of family

Family

Imbedded in the wood and stone
Of michael's home
