Mulberry Mine
There is an open invitation
Along a path I walk alone
With a little imagination
I have learned to call it home
At first I just saw vegetation
Trunks all crooked and arms spread so wide
Dating back many generations
Living pillars, day and night
Then one morning I heard your whisper
It was as if you called my name
There was no way I could resist you
And I sensed you felt the same
Mulberry mine, oh mulberry mine
You’ve been there so long, I sing you this song
Mulberry mine, oh mulberry mine,
So strong and sweet, let’s just intertwine
You show me not one face but many
I judge not, you tell me aloud
You carry a host of antennae
And feel what it’s all about
You smile, you cry, you blossom and fade
You cast your spell and I explore
The myriad riddles you’ve displayed
I’ll be back for even more
When I‘d run, you stay in one spot
When I don’t know, you say it’s fine
When my mind stops you bring a new thought
You are my haven and shrine.
