Dear family, friends, and fellow travelers,
The tune this cycle is Wish Upon a Star, a very short piano improv - a breath really, as we look toward the deepening autumn and the mysteries of darkness and light. I had a different song cued but Pammy suggested something comforting and this one does that for me.
Election Day on Tuesday, the 3rd. Keep the faith!
Love and Courage, Friends,

Dear family, friends, and fellow travelers,
The tune this cycle is Going Home, which I just finished this afternoon. We leap into this stream of life, swim and dance and sing and, at some point, we vanish beneath the rush, the flow, the tumbling, the mystery. What a joy and privilege to hold each other for a while as we go!

Dear family, friends, and fellow travelers,
The tune this cycle is Waltz During the War, a piano improv from a couple years ago when Ukraine was invaded. Pammy and I have been on the road for a few weeks and this came up in the mix as we were traveling. Sometimes sweet, sometimes harsh, sometimes beseeching - it spoke to me as we witness yet another war.
The tune this cycle is One Last Dance, which I wrote a few years ago now on the last morning of our song writers' retreat - a celebration of our connection and partings. Such poignant sweetness lies just behind each moment as we live and love, work and play together. I have been blessed in my life with a loving, enduring partner; strong, honest and caring children; friends and companions who have traversed the thick and thin of it all. I bow to each of you who I've had the good fortune to accompany, witness, travel with, share the burden with, find the joy with, share the silence with, stand before the beauty with. In this moment and for all those moments yet to come, much love.
The tune this cycle is Anthem, which I wrote this morning and just recorded. Such times we are in. There seems to be such a penchant for cruelty and excessive force in the immigration policies currently being followed. I cannot see that what ICE is currently doing is law enforcement but something much darker. If you're interested in thoughts I recently shared with our Senators and tried to get into an op ed locally, read here.
