Blackbird
My father was a musician, with a beautiful tenor voice. As we seven siblings witnessed his coffin being lowered into that cold earth, a blackbird sang his heart out on the church steeple.

his pure spirit rose
    on the softest summer breeze
          blackbird into thee...

Talent remains

Shiver and Quiver Horn Haiku Question
So would you shiver
And then start to quiver from
Cancer of liver?

It was terrible
And had been unbearable
When we did find out.

We all prayed a lot
And many tears back had fought
And were highly wrought.

To friend we do love
Save a space while up above
While you wait for us.

Just found out that a dear friend
at St. James Episcopal with great
tenor voice has cancer of the liver....

Hands of Surgeons

Our friend Bob Lynott is undergoing
cancer surgery today at Duke University.

Who we trust and on them have relied;
Now is not near;
Our prayers hear;
Give them things needed and not denied.

Jim Horn

This should be sent out to each member of
St. James Episcopal Church, Shallotte, NC.
Hope he will be here singing in choir this
Sunday with his great tenor voice....

Resistance Is Required
We’ve painted your smile disarming
Your glassy marbles alarming
Ignored your feeble warning, your face blue
We made our very own papier-mache Prince Charming

In what false light you’ve been hung
Your dreams must in harmony be sung
No solos for your tenor voice, honey 
We force your hand on the top rung

From wuthering heights we trumpet
On your trust we rudely strumpet
Don’t resist sweet crumpet, we know best for you
Into infamy now you gladly plummet...
