”From My Desk…”
Today, I report the passing of my step-dad, Al,
after a battle with cancer...
I’ve known him since I was a young girl.
At a later time, I will talk more about him, and all he meant to me,
but not today…
Today, I offer a song, from Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam:
”Man Of The Hour”
Eddie Vedder/ Pearl Jam
”Man Of The Hour”
Tidal waves don't beg forgiveness
Crashed and on their way
Father he enjoyed collisions; others walked away
A snowflake falls in May…
And the doors are open now as the bells are ringing out
‘Cause the Man of the Hour is taking his final bow
Goodbye For Now…
Nature has its own religion; gospel from the land
Father ruled by long division, young men they pretend
Old men comprehend.
And the sky breaks at dawn; shedding light upon this town
They’ll all come ‘round
‘Cause the Man of the Hour is taking his final bow
Goodbye for now.
And the road
The old man paved
The broken seams along the way
The rusted signs, left just for me
He was guiding me, love, his own way
Now the Man of the Hour is taking his final bow
As the curtain comes down
I feel that this is just goodbye for now…
Till Next Time...
