*the theme this month is "Currently Listening To"*

Leah:

"I never felt magic crazy as this
I never saw the moons knew the meaning of the sea
I never held emotion in the palms of my hand
Or felt sweet breezes from the tops of the tree
But now you're here
Brighten my northern sky

It's been a long time that I've waited"

Currently Listening To: Denison Witmer, "Northern Sky"
(originally performed by Nick Drake)

Brandon:

"Now did you want to see me broken
Bowed head and lowered eyes
Shoulders fallen down like tear drops
Weakened by my soulful cries

Does my confidence upset you
Don't you take it awful hard
Cause I walk like I've got a diamond mine
Breakin up in my front yard"

Currently Listening To: Ben Harper, "I'll Rise"
