A song for Karen. Christian Songwriters Moderator and a class act to boot! A devoted Christian and fellow songwriter, Karen has helped and inspired all who met with her on the board. it was Karen's idea to write a song for each other. I was 'drawn' to write on for her. Hopefully, the song will tug a few strings in her heart and have some sort of glimmer of resemblance to her life to her as a person and as a Christian. As they say at the best concerts "This one's for you Karen!" I hope I used the most meaningful references!

Karen’s Song
Fallen Caryatid


She aint tied to places
She aint tied to things
Memories are closer to her heart
She don’t need possessions
Don’t want no diamond rings
A true Sicilian girl right from the start

CHRS

Sometimes she feels like a fallen caryatid
Holding up that pillar on her own
Thinkin’ ‘bout that road she took
And all the things she did
To get to where she is right now
With Jesus, her family and her home
…And her home

She likes empty churches
To be at one with God
Singing to Him each and every day
Prayin’ for the ones she loves
And the ones the world forgot
And all the friends who helped her on her way

CHRS

Karen sits with her dogs
Her ‘angel’ and her ‘rock’
Feelin just like a Southern ‘Ma’m’
When she’s watchin’ movies
No one’s allowed to talk
Rhett Butler, well he don’t give a damn!
