update! 11/10/11

Hello,  I apologies for the tardiness, however there have been several issues that have come up  since the last post on this blog that have prevented both Pat Bowser and myself from posting any updates till now.  Contrary to what you may be thinking at this point because of that, both Mom and I are in point of fact still among the living as you can tell from this post here.  She's dealing with her issues as best as she can as am I . if you want more info on whats been going on With ME specifically, Please refer to my own blog at www.poeticconversations.blogspot.com . This one is Mom's  and I'm writing this post for her to let you know that she is in fact still breathing despite everything and will post an update herself as soon as she is able to do so!  in the mean time, please enjoy the following poem:


Music
By "Laughing"  Larry Berger 
It all started with a Rock!
Then a yell.

Next came the lyre and the flute
followed closely by
Minstrels and Fools  

who in turn were replaced by the likes of Mozart, Choppan, Beethoven, Baudelaire, Shakespeare and the like. 

Today
it's Billy Collins, Tupac Shikur, Areatha Franklin, Barbra Streisand, Madonna , Cher, Mom and me.  

The more things change the more they stay the same.
the values are still:

a Bard's tale is worth a portion from the table
and a Poet's song is worth a cup of wine.
We still "sing for our supper." 
Food has just simply gotten more expensive!


Take care!
