The Colour of Time - Part 18

 

Another year of travelling and studying passed before Dora returned to the City of Earth for the Year's End Holidays once more.

Her parents had moved into her grandmother's house and quit their travelling cook lives to take over the tavern in the same street.

Under Azure skies and in her memories at the same time Dora was reading her growing book of knowledge and experiences just to find herself as ever all nervous and excited about how and when she would and could return to the Temple of the spring and well of forecast and her dear old friend, Flakemane, the snowlion and guardian spirit.

The llama asked the bard, 'No story about a man or a woman or any other person or being saying, Oh, Mama, like So, ho, ho, today?'

'It's Omaha, animal, not Ohama and not Oh, Mama, but my head aches like on every Thursday these past few years.'

The bard put his staff flute into one corner of the room and emptied his glass of wine in one go.


"Bromford Town"

The winter wind is a blowing strong
My hands have got no gloves
I wish to my soul that I could see
The girl I'm a-thinking of

Don't you remember me babe
I remember you quite well
You caused me to leave old Bromford Town
With a high sheriff on my trail

High sheriff on my trail, boys
High sheriff on my trail
All because I'm falling for
A curly-headed dark-eyed girl

Who's a-gonna stroke your cold black hair
And sandy coloured skin
Who's a-gonna kiss your Memphis lips
When I'm out in the wind
When I'm out in the wind, babe
When I'm out in the wind
Who's a-gonna kiss your Memphis mouth
When I'm out in the wind

Who's a-gonna walk you side by side
And tell you everything's alright
Who's a-gonna sing to you all day long
And not just in the night
Who's a-gonna walk you side by side
Who's a-gonna be your man
Who's a-gonna look you straight in the eye
And hold your bad luck hand

Hold your bad luck hand, babe
Hold your bad luck hand
Who's a-gonna hold your hard luck hand
And who's a-gonna be your man

The winter wind is a blowing strong
My hands have got no gloves
I wish to my soul I could see
The girl I'm a-thinking of.

Today is Thursday, the 18th of December 2025.
