Recently visited Honah Lee in Hawaii.
Peter's song about Puff was recorded when I was very young.
We saw the area for Puff and the inspiration for the lyrics
We all sang along on the tour bus.
The sweetness and creativity was touching and endearing.
Maybe we need to revisit the meaning and genuiness now more than ever before.
RIP Peter Yarrow

United we stand
Perhaps you will hear the lyric and live the words Divided we fall
Selfless and caring people get it
Those not possessing these qualities don't get the message
Unless they listen and learn
Some live in yesterday
Cannot comprehend today and not prepared for tomorrow
My heart hurts for them but there are others like me that care
The Do-gooders who quietly carry on and move forward
So let's sing that Old song
Loud, clear,and strong
Stand with us

Traveler
These are the passages
of eternity
A translation beyond
right versus wrong
The questions of life
bear no relief
nor answer
While the raging heart
beats on...

Inherit the burden
of forgiveness
Your belonging
has tied your hands
Join your heart
to the universe
Heed the true call
of human.
Traveler Tim

No thank you proseletyzers
I once was blind
Now I can think for myself

Thirty Nine
More Flowers Than I've Ever Seen
Presented Before Me
As If They Were Apologies
For Ignoring Me
I Think I Would've Liked Them When I Was Alive Though

Action speaks louder than words
I beg to differ
Ideas start out as words
They work in tandem
For every old and new cliche
Words have been my friends my entire life
A great comfort and a redirection
An amazing friend even now
We create and craft with them
They have taken me to heights I never imagined
Yet,The Power of Words
Eternally grateful of time and understanding
An overly sensitive and sometimes creative me
With the Power of Words

A better year
A better you
Finding the love of your life
Making a life with that person
Celebrating you
Still want to dance at your wedding
C-Span brought us together
Friends ever since
For you
Simply the Very Best
For Joe

Her mother said
Even when they laid her mother to rest those words echoed
He sees her differently
He loves her
Her mother hated him
That line still stings and hurts
I see a creative writer still trying to say it right
Happily married woman and devoted friend
Adores nature, traveling, museums, and Art
Happy that others read and enjoy her work
Yes she is who she is
Sorry her mother saw her differently
