about

My friend Monate once said that ‘that yearning inside us is a homeward feeling’. Camping out in far west NSW, surrounded by ancient rocks, windworn trees, and fields of purple and yellow flowers, I felt I could taste the whole creation waiting for the day when it would be free from ‘the tyranny of change and decay’.
c. Nerida Cuddy 1998

lyrics

Today I wait with the trees,
On tiptoe stretching out my fingers against a stormy sky,
They sing with me, silently, their song of waiting…

Today I’m dancing with the wind,
Swaying, moving with restlessness, never to be still
It blows away the dust of my mortality…

Today I’m hoping with the earth,
Blossoming flowers for a brand new day of celebration,
Could be today that love will come to stay…


Today I’m hoping,
Today I’m dancing,
Today I’m waiting.
