The Things Bacon Lovin', Dreamweaver's Do - By Dan'l MclLhenny

Larry hugged his pillow drifting straight into deep sleep 

Exhaustion plays that card on weary souls 

Suddenly in dreamscape he found himself alone 

The surroundings looked nothing like his home 

Was this native Nebraska - before they paved the roads, 

Or someplace completely new, unknown? 

We’ll have to ask him when his rest is through 

  

The Shaman told the dreamer 

When he mystically appeared 

You’ve fallen from the clouds and landed safely here 

Do not fear the newness - it only takes a pinch of time 

Before the big Sunshine 

Climbs to claim the sky again 

  

It’s okay to yodel like the coyotes do 

Let the stars above fascinate your brain 

As the campfire crackles down to coals 

Spread out that trusty, ragged old bedroll 

And find the peace of mind 

You’ve hungered for so long 

Charlotte hangs a painting in the window of her shop 

Known as The One Stop Antiquer’s Paradise 

Along the hardscrabble pickers path 

These curio’s make her laugh… she sighs - 

“How funny, the oddball things these shoppers love to buy!” 

Alas, another day finally falls for darkness 

Snug in bed her eyes decide it’s time to close 

  

Where a Shaman consoles the weaver 

As he magically appears 

You’ve fallen from the clouds and landed safely Dear 

Do not fear the newness - it only takes a pinch of time 

Before the big Sunshine 

Climbs to claim the sky again 

  

It’s okay to yodel like the coyotes do 

And let the stars above fascinate your brain 

As the campfire crackles down to coals 

Spread out your comfy, faded gold bedroll 

And find the peace of mind 

You’ve hungered for so long 

  

He serves her bacon in the morning…She stirs bacon in their evenin’ stew 

I guess that’s the thing Bacon Lovin’, Dreamweaver’s do
