a tree or the veil
you find the facts
once you see
it puts an axe
to your tree
a tree you've grown
since your birth
falls to the unknown
roaming the earth
assumptions you have made
you now realize
were some shade
pulled over your eyes
but do not fear
calm your soul
to see clear
is the only way to roll
like wind that blows
know he is there
the big guy knows
that you are aware
was it your tree
that just fell
or is what you see
the presence of the veil
Yesterday I was talking with a good friend about folk music. He was telling me about a band from Middlesboro Kentucky that had been on AGT. They are called the Appalachian Heathens. They had performed a version of Knocking On Heaven’s Door. So that is what had gotten us on folk singers.
My friend was taking a break from yard work. He has quite the green thumb in more ways than one. He is the one who planted the seed in my mind for what would become the blog that you are currently reading. So if you are suffering you know who to blame.
I asked him if he had ever seen the video clip of Arlo Guthrie doing his talk on Elvis the folk singer. I don’t think that he had. I came home and looked it up. I have always thought that it is neat and kind of magical in a way.
We have talked about the vibe more than once in the blog. I really like the vibe and kind of magic that kind of floats in this video. It will be the 2nd entry in the Music (non Hawaiian) section of the blog menu.
Enjoy the vibe and the video as you smile…
