Sunshine and Wind

We always go back to that ... be careful what you pray for... What is she talking about? Well, the other day I said I missed Cape Town and today the sun is shining and... the wind is blowing. OK... there is not a lot of sand and it is not howling, but give a woman with imagination a break!
Yesterday I talked about Fat Cotton playing at our house once a week so in case you are wondering who it is... here is a link to their website... http://www.fatcotton.com/


anything but blue

Fat Cotton blues
Haunts me
Yearning to capture your energy
Ripping through your soul
Blues blood
Makes you somehow
In tune
Deep family connections
More whole

Fat Cotton blues
A rehearsal
Mostly other’s beats
Completely different
Through your feet
For me an easy
Mental treat
Life in your instruments
Never cries
Defeat

Anything but blue
It seems
From the daily grind
Rapidly recuperating
Occasional
Original tunes
Collective instincts
Rejuvenating
Playing
So much better
Than a life spent
Ruminating

For Per, Anders and Tomas… go on playing
