“The Crackle of the Wind”
An original piece of folk music imagery in song performed, written and played on the guitar by Damien Riley 2024
Lyrics:
A little child inside hears owls hoot
The radiant evening is soon
Games are played, streetlight approved
in the Crackle of the Wind
A little raven head steps up to the stool
To see the moon from a ragged room
A night dress is hemmed at a mother’s spool
In the Crackle of the Wind
And I can hear the wind sing
Way Oh Way Oh
A song is played in some dark room
Someone’s heart is deeply moved
Season’s change their different hues
in the Crackle of the Wind
And I can hear the wind sing
Way Oh Way Oh
