Walk With Me

Walk with me 
Toward the sunset 
Passed the harbour 
Over the lock 
Between the marina and the mews 
By the hillside 
And the gently lapping waves 

Walk with me 
Spare a moment 
Enjoy the golden hour 
The incoming quiet 
The lengthening shadows 

Walk with me 
Share the cooling air 
The breath 
The heartbeat 
The anticipation for what's to come 

Walk with me 
Hold the feelings 
The connection 
The memories made 

Walk with me 
One last time 

Just walk with me

          I know this one… and I think my family had a connection to Acker Bilk back in the day. Unless I’m mixing him up with someone else, which is highly likely.
