At the Border BluesI'm walking slow and easy,
so I do myself no harm.
Got my papers in my pocket,
got the bracelet on my arm.

I walk along the border
and I do not see a guard.
Crossing over looks so easy -
you might think it would be hard.

You can always find somebody
who will tell you not to go.
If I talk about what's wrong here,          
they say I would miss it so.

But I hear there is a city
with real people on the street.
None are dangerous or witless,
like so many that I meet.

And the towers of that city
do not stand to shake a fist.
They rise for the sake of beauty
and their beauty is not missed.

Some have gone and then come back her
Things in Motion BluesEverything's in motion,
some things push and some just drift.
Oh yes, it's all in motion,
some things push and some just drift.
And the things that push the hardest
are not the ones you wish.

Take me away, babe,
from all these restless things.
Oh, take me away
from all these restless things.
Hide me like an angel
in the shelter of your wings.

Everything's in motion,
you and I are moving too.
Every, everything's in motion,
you and I are moving too.
But when we move together
I do not feel so blue.

Le Chateau Frontenacby *RichardLeach

DescriptionDetailsShare
For the altered postcard project of *derkert and *jkd-kat. See [link]

This is a card of Le Château Frontenac in the city of Quebec. The alterations play off the motto of Quebec province, "Je me souviens" ("I remember") and personal associations. My wife and I honeymooned in Quebec - this card is from a visit many years later.

Paper collage with water color crayon, ink and tea. 15 cm. by 10.5 cm.

Ed, I sent it on December 21 to the info e-mail address. But then I noticed that version was not cropped correctly. I just sent it again to the edvard address, with a better crop. It's 1000 pixels wide. --R
