Some Times of Night                  words by Bob MacKenzie                  music by Cilla Leigh Some times of night the world seems far away So like a life we dream to have some day, While all around the mists obscure and hide The world of man from man who would reside, A spiral snail aloof among the dew Of high rise grass and wait the reaper's shoe That ends the day to leave behind crushed shell, 'Though where the snail has gone no one can tell. And yet does not this snail become the mist About a dream another world has kissed With love and made by love to be its own So that again the sower's seed is sown, This time no reaper waiting to receive Nor shell aspiral needed to deceive. published: The Tower, 1970                 Creative Minds, 1972                 Janus & SCTH, 1973                 Pine's the Canadian Tree [anthology], 1974
