'Flowers Wild'. is the first 'OFFICIAL' Single from upcoming full-length album release TIME by Kyra and Tully
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


about Flowers Wild from Kyra:" I wrote Flowers Wild during a life changing experience the first time we helped to take care of our friends animals, around 4 cows, 25 chickens, 7 goats, 12 sheep (or so), 4 white ducks,  a great pyrenees mountain dog and their cat, as well as our own dear dog Sodo a golden labrador retriever (since passed) at their 100 acre bio dynamic farm for two weeks over March break. The farm was still in the grasp of winter when we arrived, frozen solid, though it very quickly changed to a major spring melt down and kept us busy while engaging our special needs son. We had cows and goats breaking out of the fence with the green grass calling, a chicken passed in our care.  A massive vegetable garden was covered in (soon melting) snow- lay on one side of the main house- and the barn where the animals lived- on the other. At the time I was (am still) struck by the synchronicity of the relationship between the vegetables and the animals, us humans in the middle,  how (in my mind) we all need each other to exist in a healthy and balanced way.   I wrote and completed Flowers Wild song during this animal care giving time, the lyrics are essentially a collection of ideas and feelings captured during our stay and cut and pasted together from a little journal I had written in. The title Flowers Wild actually came from a brainstorming name session with our singer song writer pal Tim Sheffield (Clem Chesterfield and one of the back up singers) for a folk collective we've been dreaming about for a time:  'Flowers Wild-Music for the Young at Heart Folk Collective and the title was part of the inspiration for the song. 

lyrics

Flowers Wild (words and music by Kyra)
Rows outlined crusted snow brown earth deep below Golden fields aglow casting shadows for miles it goes all directions as far as my eye can see tree horizon house you and me *I want to run, run wide open spaces beautiful places time spent with you fields woods and meadows rocks trees and petals flowers wild spirit of a child wearing down the soles of our boots wearing down the soles of our shoes amongst flowers wild Boy walks with his dog along iced paths waterlogged Careful steps slip and slide stick in hand on he glides Trail he follows to the cabin carved sculptures he steps in watching skies above, geese fly home our hearts are filled with love heads on soft pillows gusting wind cloud billows blue pink streaked sky with sun we rise I heard the coyotes call through my cracked open window moonlight now another birdsong sung symphony of singers *
