CINNAMON TEA

TEACHER TESS

The kids will be here soon
I'll let 'em sleep until the afternoon
And when they awake
Maybe a picnic by the lake
With some raspberry pancakes and cinammon tea.

(The lights come up on the VW Bus, still hurtling northward. DAVIE is driving and the kids are slumped on the back seats, except HENRY who gets up, looks around, and sticks his head out the sunroof, drinking in the night air as the wind whips his face.)

The danger won't last long
The kings and queens are young and strong
And up here with me
The kids will safely run free
Having raspberry pancakes and cinammon tea
Raspberry pancakes and cinammon tea.

(TESS turns to a small cupboard, opens it, and pulls out a small silver framed photograph. She looks longingly at the picture as she sings.)

TEACHER TESS

These 20 years all alone here
So obscure and unknown here
Have healed my wounded soul
What was broken now is whole, and I'm fine
A little lonely sometimes
Just like anyone

And all the stars are out tonight
And the house is wrapped in snowy white
And up here with me
The kids will safely run free
Having raspberry pancakes and cinammon tea
Raspberry pancakes and cinammon tea.

There's such power in the air here
Mystic moonlight so rare here
And 20 years apart
Have healed my wounded heart
And I'm fine
A little lonely sometimes
Just like anyone

I'm a child of the '60s, so I favor guitar music. When I get exhausted with hard blues-rock, doom-metal and acid-bluegrass, what's left? Listening to jam-bands noodle their way into some really good guitar solos! This isn't one of the best for that, but I don't dislike the name of the band, the cover art and the album title, which demostrates the power of inflstion. cpost2000
