The River Sean

I was up at your tree yesterday with Robin, did you feel us? I tied Nicol and Jason's Buddhist bracelet around your wrist, and shared a while. Stared a while. I'm so glad I stopped by before I head east this time. Just to connect a little. Maybe in a different way than usual. I wasn't exactly sure what to expect, but it made sense to me. I asked for help. I asked you for help. Sometimes that's all I know how to do.

Today, just a moment ago, I stumbled upon this song that Jamie wrote sometime in the first year. Thanks.


The River Sean

In a river in a valley
Floating underneath the sun
Lay Sean Michael Sullivan
On the day that he moved on

I wonder if there were coyotes watching
Or eagles flying up above
Did the clouds hang on the horizon
Waiting for the man we loved

I must admit if I had to choose
There’d be no better way to go
Nearly naked in a river
Where the cycle of life flows

He will be forever around us
Pulling us along
As we float together
As we float together
As we float together
On The River Sean

Eddies of curiosity
And whirlpools of art
We’ll be splashing in his laughter
And feel the current of his heart

And beyond the pools of sadness
And the waterfalls of tears
Lay infinite blue waters
And everlasting years

Where angry canaries frolic
Play soccer and unwind
And talking wooden boxes
Say what’s on their minds

Where crowds of people dressed in glue
Laugh as they fall down
Where we’re all just truckers’ girlfriends
Swimming around



He will be there rolling with us
When the river flows
We’ll spill into the ocean
We’ll spill into the ocean
We’ll spill into the ocean
To give our love to Rose

He will be forever around us
Pulling us along
As we float together
As we float together
As we float together
On The River Sean

As we float together
As we float together
As we float together
On The River Sean
