Well, it seems that no one is viewing this blog. So how can I make it more public?

I have been going retro – listening to John Denver. There are some amazing lyrics in his songs. And I’m singing them in Paris! Paris – open your door to the Spirit!

Well, it was back in the mid-’70’s when I was attending Andrew Jackson High School in Chalmette, Louisiana. I had a guitar, and so did my friend, Shelly Galliano. Perhaps I have misspelled her name, but we were into John Denver’s music and it was a good time. I had never seen him ‘live’ and I doubt that she had either. However, his music was therapy for our teenage years. Back then I had always let myself be carried by the tunes and lyrics. Here are a few of the lyrics from one of my favorites;

Poems, Prayers & Promises

“And talk of poems, and prayers, and promises

And things that we believe in:

How sweet it is to Love someone,

How right it is to care.

How long it’s been since yesterday,

What about tomorrow?

And what about our dreams,

And all the memories we share?”

These lines have been in imbedded in my heart since 14 or 15. Coming back to them is like coming back home, in my heart…

More John Denver perhaps in the next entry…

Luv and Blessings!
