Howdy Jamey,
Reflections of the mind and heart on the life and death multi-wheeled tributaries...a strong story that we all can relate to in this day and age. One never knows! I guess those three words have been said many times by each of us and to each of us when another destination is about to be encompassed.....you certainly have captured strong mood in the tellin' of this story, my friend~!!!! I'm glad you made it home safe and sound, and I pray you always will and I pray for comfort for those who've lost someone in the times when someone doesn't....Mankind on the go for all the various reasons should remember to be thankful for safe arrivals.......so, thank you Jamey for the strong reminder, told so very well~!!!!!! Great work!!!!!!
Respectfully,
Wade
Entertaining and very solid ballad/soundtrack Jamey, nicely done!
