PEACE

  
     In that moment when Patti Smith missed a lyric, apologized, nervously began again and was met with a warm applause that grew even warmer upon completion of A Hard Rains A Gonna Fall at the Nobel literature presentation the love of this season was personified. Sincerity, compassion, tenderness, love and joy were all in that moment.
      The grand spiritual and philosophical architecture of this epoch of human habitation on this planet is constructed by singular acts, one at a time. They exist and in fact they abound if only we will see them, or create them.
      Regardless of your most intimate and deepest belief please allow me to wish you and yours Merriment at this Christmas season. May you all experience joy, peace and the light of love.

     See you down the trail.

  1. There are few lines of Dylan's song that don't ring true today, and how many years/decades is that? How much time is enough?
    We're on a sine wave, that is getting lower or the y axis every year.

    1. As I listened again to the tune I was struck by how prophetic that young poet was.
