In 1963, two cowbays began a journey,
And took us with them, you and me
"We're each of us alone, to be sure. What can you do but hold your hand out in the dark?" --"Nine Lives," by Ursula K. Le Guin, from The Wind's Twelve Quarters

And took us with them, you and me
We wander seeking the heart's horizon,

We wander seeking the heart's horizon,
We saw them together heart and soul with vision

Thank you Heath and Jake for showing us Ennis and Jack,  teaching us how much they loved one another.

And took us with them, you and me
We wander seeking the heart's horizon,
We saw them together heart and soul with vision
And we all, cowboys or no, yearn to be free.

A new one...

The mountain air rang clear with the Christian hymn,

Each looked at the other, so glad to be with him.

Each looked at the other, so glad to be with him.
Jack's voice was ragged, raw, but true,

To Ennis's ear it sounded so sweet and new

To Ennis's ear it sounded so sweet and new
This secret joy which neither space nor time could dim.

Long before sunrise red and white Ford pickup comes to life.
An air of expectation, peaceful, no strife--
