Wisdom of the Elders

Wisdom of the elders
doesn't arrive with a fanfare
unseen on the evening news
unheard by the tinhorn ear.
Doesn't fit the grand plan of man
won't change the fact
that it’s still in the air....

Two Handed Tapping: Our Top 8 Tappers of All Time
Receiving emails from Stringjoy about strings and guitars and such. I was wondering who would be on this list of guitar tappers. Thinking of Stanley Jordan first and he was on the top of this article!

Something about King Of The World.
Nothing to do with today's topics.
Love this song. Guitars, beats, lyrics too.

"No marigolds in the promised land
There's a hole in the ground
Where they used to grow
Any man left on the Rio Grande
Is the king of the world
As far as I know"

A song for BlueSky:
Blue Sky by Ian Moore
"...To paint me a blue sky
May the colors run true
That I may look to the Heavens
When I search for the truth..."

Dark hills along Breckenridge Mountain, California

On the hills at night
quiet, but not silent...

The Lone Tree

The Lone Tree

The lone tree
stands on its own

against the heat, rain and wind
weathering the storms

Dormant in winter’s cold
awakening in spring

sprouting leaves to sun
Sturdy strength gives solace

to creatures small and great
shade to weary travelers

just to sit a spell
