This is the song that makes me feel like I’m a kid again, at home with my mom in our living room, on a peaceful afternoon. All those memories come back, the feeling of safety, of ease, of being cared for, of freedom, of relaxing after a good day, of looking forward to more good things. This song makes me feel the experience of being inside the world of my mother’s love and care.
This song also sparked deep feelings in me as a kid. I dint know the words, but I felt the longing. This song pulled my heart of out my chest as a kid, and it still does. My mother had this CD and listened to it a lot of quiet afternoons. I didn’t know what it was from or what it meant. But I could tell that it meant something! It was speaking to me about fall leaves crinkling and blowing away on a cool, breezy, sunny day, and regret and loss. The autumn of the heart.
