Pretend You Can Build Your Hopes Again...

Time, time, time, see what's become of me

While I looked around

For my possibilities

I was so hard to please

But look around, leaves are brown

And the sky is a hazy shade of winter

Hear the salvation army band

Down by the riverside, it's bound to be a better ride

Than what you've got planned

Carry your cup in your hand

And look around, leaves are brown now

And the sky is a hazy shade of winter

Hang on to your hopes, my friend

That's an easy thing to say, but if your hope should pass away

It's simply pretend

That you can build them again

Look around, the grass is high

The fields are ripe, it's the springtime of my life

Ahhh, seasons change with the scenery

Weaving time in a tapestry

Won't you stop and remember me

At any convenient time

Funny how my memory slips while looking over manuscripts

Of unpublished rhyme

Drinking my vodka and lime

Ilook around, leaves are brown now

And the sky is a hazy shade of winter

Look around, leaves are brown

There's a patch of snow on the ground...

Look around, leaves are brown

There's a patch of snow on the ground...

Look around, leaves are brown

There's a patch of snow on the ground...

Drinking my Vodka and lime...carry your cup in your hand...Oh, S&G were so east coast, and they...damn they were the poet and the one-man-band! I saw them in Central Park, living legends. As Garfunkel said about Monterey versus Woodstock, he was involved in the ORIGINAL so why would he want part of the copy? The original is obviously better. Ok left-coasters, I give you that much credit; you did the super-concert better. But WE still got S&G. So...WHAT-EVAH!

Lemme tell you, that's the NY experience. Do you think it's EASY to get one of those cups? IT ISN'T! Those beggars got that cup SOMEHOW, and however they did it it wasn't easy. You gotta have cash money to get a cup like that. So if you see a beggar with a fresh cup, tell him to fuck off. He had to have money to get it.

I hope and trust you're well, enveloped in Love and experiencing joy.

Today is sad, but it's a convenient time to be thinking of you and missing you.

How's the wine there, my friend?

Howdy, ANNIEE!
I'm just checking in at a "convenient time", and about to add this song to my favorite YT Playlist, 'Goldenshadowland'. The song is dedicated to the memory of my friends Linda Haley, Anniee451 & Annie McPhee.

I still miss you, girl!
