Water sure is wet today
In a warm beach summer, a long time ago, the Moody Blues where in the charts, life was new, we were invincible. The sunsets were golden, the water was emerald green, the sand was warm, the nights were alive with stars. If we had known then, what we know now...we would have held hands and joyously skipped in front of a speeding beer truck. This song came out in 1983 on the album whose cover introduced me to Maxfield Parish. "Running Water" by the Moody Blues |
This Man.......
This man taught me how to make a wicked biscuit. This man has deep green eyes, like the green sparkle of the ocean in the late afternoon sun. Like that electric green color of a wave at the top of the arc, right before you dig the board in and roll down the other side. This man is one of the good things in the world. This man gives me hope that hard work and dreams do work out. This man appears in my dreams, often, and I don't know what he means when he shows up. This man is helping me find a tiny ray of hope on a day when my disease is so bad I'm having to talk myself out of suicide. I found this cool video tribute on "YouTube". It's by an artist who goes by the tube name of "AltonFan". Enjoy the video. |
