Kennys Song
March 20th 2009
by Natalie Springel
Black coffee in a firm but gentle hand
Grey beard and a truckers hat and a farmers tan
He looks up to God for a place to stand
Hes a keep us doin what were supposed to man
Family, community and a proclivity to care
The angel wove a tapestry of the life that they would share
Like water to her soul,
Was the partner she would know
That would give her wings and useful things and love to show the word
Protection and strength in the work of his hands
Her best friend, her love and her biggest fan
The Lord gave Helen a rock upon which she could stand
A keeps us doin what were supposed to man.
Jokes and pokes and giggles and kisses and looks
Car rides, crossword puzzles and Sudoko books
I wont forget his smile
How hed stay and chat a while
And hed make you feel like you were special
Unlike any in the world
Big hugs and belly that got in the way
Five minutes with Uncle Kenny will brighten your day
That brat loves us for what we cant and what we can
Hes a keep us doin what were supposed to man
I can see it now: deep blue sky and clouds
And a luscious course of green,
Grandpa Maurice and Jesus
And hes standing in between
Hes teeing off with Grandpa
And hes teeing off with the man
Hes doing what hes supposed to
Golfing in the promise land
So lets bow our hearts and thank God for
Our good and faithful friend
Lord, help us keep doing what were supposed to
Amen.

Browsing youtube and finding beautiful girls alone in their rooms playing guitar makes me feel so angsty and nostalgic. I find beautiful girls in real life, but most are irresponsible/cheat on me.
I look at you and I don't know you at all and I project everything I want and need into you. That's what your guitar and voice do. I know it's not truth, but I feel it anyway.
haha and you did this for your family! so innocently sweet. kickass.
