I wrote this with a memory of being truly happy in a tranquil setting in Northern Michigan at my cabin. I would always say "I could die here" because I was so happy and at peace with everything.

lyrics

Sunny skies, mid afternoon
Songbirds sing your daily tune
Open meadow and fields of green
Northern Michigan's tranquil scene

Someday you will meet your demise
So take it slow enjoy the ride
Immerse yourself in beauty to pass the time

What's the use in being found
When you escape to solid ground
the wildflowers so vibrant and true
Succumb to what you are meant to do

Someday you will meet your demise
So take it slow enjoy the ride
Immerse yourself in beauty to pass the time

On the day you meet your demise
Embrace it slowly enjoy the ride
Immerse yourself in beauty for the rest of time
