I was doing the supper dishes and looked outside the window. It has been raining here most of the afternoon and is finally taking a break. I could see the rain drops, the dull view of clouds but I did see a couple of streaks of sun; a promise of sun to come.
I have not been a good girl on keeping up with my packing. I busted butt last week and then slacked off thinking, oh well, I got plenty of time. Today it is bugging me because I know the more I slack the more to pack later on; so in order to get on the ball I turned on Al’s radio I found after he passed.
I heard a song playing that suddenly gave me a lift in energy, so off to work I go packing some more. What was that song I heard, that got the body moving?

You’ve been given the ability to build a magical tunnel that will quickly and secretly connect your home with the location of your choice — anywhere on Earth. Where’s the other end of your tunnel?
THE TUNNEL
A house at the edge of the block
Covered by bushes and trees
A scary place to walk by at night
Can make you feel so ill at ease
And inside lives an old woman alone
Who cares less about the outside view
She’s heard all the scandals and stories told
She smiles, because she always knew
That she is the only one who has
A secret place given only to her
A tunnel which brings her life alive
Which she sees clear, not even a blur
When she feels cast out from the world
She only need walk through that door
She lets the light guide her way
To there and here for never more
And waiting for her to say hello
With smiling faces of delight
Is all her family passed from here
And everything is finally alright.
