The Coddiwompler

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished 3 months ago 2 min read

[Verse]

Step by step I chase after the breeze

Through tangled woods and open seas

I've got Maps in my hand I don't really need

to tell me where to go or who to be

[Chorus]

I'm a coddiwompler dancing free

No fixed horizon is calling me

The road unwinds like a melody

my Destination is vague but it feels good to me

I'm a coddiwompler dancing free

[Verse 2]

The clouds above me shift and sigh

I wink at the stars that light the sky

The ground beneath me is my only guide

Leading me on this amazing ride

[Chorus]

I'm a coddiwompler dancing free

No fixed horizon is calling me

The road unwinds like a melody

my Destination is vague but it feels good to me

I'm a coddiwompler dancing free

[Bridge]

I carry questions

Not much more

A pocket of dreams

An open door

Where it leads

I can't be sure

But that's the magic I adore

Chorus]

I'm a coddiwompler dancing free

No fixed horizon is calling me

The road unwinds like a melody

my Destination is vague but it feels good to me

I'm a coddiwompler dancing free

I'm a coddiwompler dancing free

Dancing free....
