Back in the early 60's, two brothers from Cuba ended up staying in a foster home for about two weeks. It was in December and the snow was deep. Of course we took them for a sleigh ride. Their eyes were the size of dinner plates. What joy it was to see two kids laughing and shouting. They thought they were in heaven. And ya know what? They were.<br />Happy New Year, my friend.Stevennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1613729047769383491.post-7087289072818915732013-01-03T23:11:43.128-06:002013-01-03T23:11:43.128-06:00That's a shame.

I hadn't heard "My Philosophy", appreciated it, and will look for more of Jackie Levin. It is bittersweet, isn't it, when we meet an artist after his or her passing, wanting and wishing for more? How wonderful that there are such renditions as these. <br /><br />Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening - well, now, this of Frost's is among my favorite poems, since I was a young girl. Jackie Levin's music brings it alive anew for me. <br /><br />Happy New Year, Teresa.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1613729047769383491.post-33820087642768436952012-12-31T19:15:37.630-06:002012-12-31T19:15:37.630-06:00Hi JIll, That's a good ear you have. :) Glad y...Hi JIll, That's a good ear you have. :) Glad you enjoyed him.
