a reminisce poem

once
long hair
 viking blonde
swept and fell
over these frets


today
 as razored head bows
loose monk robes
flow over
ringing strings

  3. A personal evolution. And the depth of soul remains the same. Does the song?

  4. Like the contrast of the first from second verse ~ We change through the years, in clothes and thoughts ~

  5. Old Ollie,

    I think the passion has probably intensified as the experienced hand plucks the strings...A more mellow and depthful tone.

    Best Easter Greeting to you Ollie,
    Eileen

  7. The viking is still alive within the monk, and guards him well.

  9. At the very end the ringing strings remind me of string theory.....as if time had brought a harmony to matter and maybe even a deeper reality.....
    I love it!

  14. Change is good, progress... But do we really change with our costumes, I doubt
