Folks, I alway's thought this line from "The Ballad of St Anne's reel" somehow caught the moment "Leap, the heart inside him went, and off across the floor he sent His clumsy body, graceful as a child " and also by Dave Mallet from the "Garden song"
An old crow watching hungrily From his perch in yonder tree, In my garden I'm as free As that feathered thief up there.
There's also a line in a song called "The Button Pusher" by Enoch Kent (I think) which is not in the DT which goes "If my wife denies my conjocular rights or my breakfast milk is sour" which makes one think, what was HE thinking when he dreamed up this line. I wish I could write some lines like this. Noel P.
