Early Morning Harmony

Danced with Conceived and born Sung to and nursed On a downy soft quilt Transfused with Vibrations of Ellington Basie, Crosby, Waller Goodman and Armstrong Skyrocketed spiritually By Kern and Carmichael Porter, Gershwin and Berlin Thanks Mom and Dad For the beautiful music We made together On that bed of downy softness

You said it! I talked to Benny Goodman one night between halves of a concert. He is as sweet a guy as his music. Congrats on the selection. daver
