This is my personal favorite. I am not a great musician, but I have learned a few tricks 
along the way. This piece is an example of that. Much of the accompaniment is a result of 
laying down several tracks in order to fill in the thin spots created by my own 
weaknesses. This song, on the other hand, is what it is. This is by far my favorite style 
of playing on the classic guitar--a combination of a melody line supported by a strumming 
harmony on the other five strings.

THE FLIGHT
Words by Sara Teasdale, music by James E. Nelson

We are two eagles
Flying together
Under the heavens,
Over the mountains,
Stretched on the wind.
Sunlight heartens us,
Blind snow baffles us
Raveled and thinned.

We are like eagles,
But when Death harries us,
Human and humbled
When one of us goes,
Let the other follow,
Let the flight be ended,
Let the fire blacken,
Let the book close.
