Skips

How true is it that skipping through a huge grassland of tall grass (with the occassional flowers) at sunset makes one smile like the way many do in the movies?

What about the grazes caused by the tall weed like grass slithering against bare skin? Thorns from the flowers pricking into flesh?

Or perhaps the wind, with the slight heat from what's left of the sun before it sets, the scents from the occassional flowers, and the seemingly interminable grassland makes everything worthwhile.

For someone like me though - who doesn't particularly take delight in being amongst nature - it does puzzle, how skipping through that grassland, past flowers which aren't my favourite, in that summer, during that sunset, still made me smile.

Carrie Underwood - Mama's Song :)

"Mama you taught me to do the right things
So now you have to let your baby fly
You've given me everything that I will need
To make it through this crazy thing called life
And I know you watch me grow up and always want whats best for me
And I think I found the answer to your prayers

And he is good, so good
He treats your little girl like a real man should
He is good, so good, he makes promises he keeps
No he's never gonna leave
So dont you worry about me
Dont you worry about me
Mama theres no way you'll ever lose me
And giving me away is not goodbye
As you watch me walk down to my future, I hope tears of joy are in your eyes
Cuz he is good, so good
He treats your little girl like a real man should
He is good, so good, he makes promises he keeps
No he's never gonna leave
So dont you worry about me
Dont you worry about me

And when I watch my little baby grow I'll only want whats best for her
And I hope she'll find the answer to my prayers
And that she'll say
He is good, so good
He treats your little girl like a real man should
He is good, so good, he makes promises he keeps
No he's never gonna leave
So dont you worry about me
Dont you worry about me

Mama dont you worry about me
Dont you worry about me"
