written one night after a run when I stopped at the beach and gazed at the Bay and the city before returning home on Kilby St. to Cyndy and Joe...Debbie sang this the memorial when little Jack died...


I raise my arms to the night sky,
and whisper to myself - I’m alive!
You can go so long and never say that -
so much unseen before your eyes....


Well some shine bright and some shine brighter,
some shine the brightest of them all!
We are points of light in this dark,dark night
and we must shine until we fall...

fall like our dreams in forgetfulness-
fail like our words in the wind...
Like they say, tomorrow’s another day,
and tonight is the time to begin-

So raise your arms to the night sky,
and whisper to yourself- I’m alive!
