Poems by Brother Ollie: the Tired Monk
Gospel and outlaw country - the music of the road. :)
Brother Ollie,There is no better way of speaking the words of Gospel and truth, than through the words and the melody of music. Somehow, the message is eventually delivered, especially in a familiar hummimg!! Almost choral...Eileen
A theme of open road poems this week, Ollie......nothing like good tunes for a traveling man.
Ha, loved the mix of 'gospel' songs with 'outlaw' country. Yup, a slice of real life.
