I tried to find Harlem Nocturne by Hamp. No luck.

Great poem.

Who has seen the wind?
Neither I nor you:
But when the leaves hang trembling,
The wind is passing through.

Who has seen the wind?
Neither you nor I:
But when the trees bow down their heads,
The wind is passing by.


Now a word from the doctor

Steve Earle -- I Don't Want To Lose You Yet

Good morning, dear friend. Fantastic sextet of songs, and I always appreciate
your comments. Wish I could acknowledge each one of yours but my favorite
of yours was I Dream Slow Goldmine because it reminded me of a great
definition:


Bluegrass music is a form of American roots music, and a related genre of country music. Influenced by the music of Appalachia, bluegrass has mixed roots in Irish, Scottish and English traditional music, and was also later influenced by the music of African-Americans through incorporation of jazz elements.

When my kids were little, I read a lot of Dr. Seuss.
For a while I could go page after page of The Cat in the Hat by memory.
