May All Your Weeds Be Wildflowers

about

Kindness is kindness wherever you go. No-one is all bad, and from even the darkest moments can spring laughter. You're never too old, it's never too late and life is for enjoying. These are all things I have learned from my Nana Jean

lyrics

"May all your weeds be wildflowers,"
She says as she welcomes me and my boyfriend into her home
Her heart is as big and ecclectic as the Dear Green Place
Her laugh a kit of George Square pigeons taking flight

She persists in making tea for all of us here
But in her eighth decade we think she's earned a seat
"Don't be daft," she says. "Sit down"
She's going dancing tonight

"May all your weeds be wildflowers,"
She says to the stranger, the immigrant and the refugee
"There's tea in the urn, biscuits and cakes,
"A fire in the hearth as long as you stay

"And when you think your sun's
"Gone down for the last time
"May the Earth move and the world grant you
"One more bright new day"

about

Lewis Mullen Glasgow, UK

I write the kind of music I'd like to listen to, and I hope you enjoy listening to it to. It's a window into a slightly different world that's a more honest mirror of our own
