Music inspires our souls<br />
to seek perfection<br />
in a world wide web of notes.<br />
<br />
Chords bring harmony<br />
to those whose hearts<br />
are open to the unusual.<br />
<br />
Prejudice and despair<br />
have no place<br />
in the concert of light.<br />
<br />
We dance in tandem<br />
with the outer world<br />
awaiting our turn at the song wheel.<br />
<br />
For one who sang so well<br />
there should be no lasting tears<br />
only the harmonious sound<br />
of his amazing performance.<br />
<br />

<br />
of our national pysche<br />
<br />
the one that makes Canada<br />
<br />
proud of its nature.<br />
<br />
His eternal optimism<br />
<br />
and caring for ordinary people<br />
<br />
shines beyond death.<br />
<br />
Its simple message<br />
<br />
is to be on board<br />
<br />
the ship of hope and grace,<br />
<br />
sail forward into the future.<br />
<br />
Respect your fellow travellers<br />
<br />
Accept your destiny.<br />

<br />
of green leaves. How sad they look<br />
<br />
on the arid grass. We have nurtured <br />
<br />
their presence all summer<br />
<br />
but death comes in spite of our efforts<br />
<br />
and we are feeling the loss<br />
<br />
even before it happens.Peggy Fletcherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04168147231966198663noreply@blogger.com1
