The morning was dark
And the sun didn't rise
Darkness filled my teared up eyes
A shot of booze for my lonely blues
And the sun didn't shine any hues
So I stood
About 8ft from the dead
Surrounded by peaceful waters
Come to wash me anew
Rippling over the passing of time
And the mountains came alive
I saw a hummingbird by my side
And the sun did come out to shine
From my place in the shade
I sat there and I gazed
Into the realm of eternal blue
Peaceful waters coming back to you
And when the hummingbird flew away
I knew it had comeback to say goodbye to you
So I let the peaceful waters wash me away
And like the bird on its way
I felt a weight lifted away
A souvenir can always stay
Make the emptiness go away
The water the and the shade
I too will find my destiny one lonely day

Remembering the rink
If you were there, you’ll never forget it. For decades, Durham Ice Rink was at the heart of the city’s social life. From Friday night ice discos to crowds roaring on the Wasps every Sunday, not to mention a proud history of figure skating and speed skating, the riverside rink was the place to be.
