Old Blues Old blues Notes never fade Muffled horns improvise Stories sung in whiskey voices Conjure up barrooms filled with drink and smoke Louis, Ella and Billie are ever immortalized In the songs of Old blues Alison [This message has been edited by aziza (05-02-2007 11:17 AM).] |

Hey MidniteSun -- Thank you for taking the time to respond. I feel connected by once shared geography. Plus, I admire your thoughts. A -------------------------- secondhanddreampoet Thank you for such fun challenges. You opened my mind a bit more and I really enjoyed the time that I spent writing both of these. A |

LOVE It! Can't write it but love the way you put it together. Never saw Ella or Billie (listened to them a lot) but saw Louie on Bourbon Street when the Street was Real. j. |
