Stars In The Southern Sky (A Quatern) There are stars in the southern sky Smiling as the full moon floats by. Hear my voice on the summer breeze, Sweet songs drifting across the seas.

Gentle Rain
Gentle Rain Listen to your heart beat softly as summer burns in effigy restless crickets voice sad disdain to the rhythm of gentle rain.
