I can play a little guitar. A handful of songs.

Before I got sucked in this latest drama vortex, I was spending quite a bit of time improving my skills.

The Kingston acoustic is my favorite.

I donated it to a co-worker after he fixed my Mustang for free, as a random act of kindness.

Along with his wife, he was very involved in their local church. At the church, my co-worker had been faithfully giving guitar lessons to kids for FREE. I knew he had been hoping to find another church guitar for the kids, so I gave it away as a donation to the church for the kids taking music lessons.

Autumn Leaves - Frank Sinatra

The falling leaves drift by the window
The Autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sunburned hand I used to hold

Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all, my darling
When Autumn leaves start to fall

I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sunburned hand I used to hold

Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all, my darling
When Autumn leaves start to fall.

Have you heard RHCP's new album, The Getaway, in its entirety yet?..not only does it have a "fishy" song with Dreams of a Samurai..

quote:

---

"A metamorphosis samurai
Y’got a little lord fish and you don’t know why I got a
Metamorphosis samurai

Paint your face cause I’m a black foot
I thought I counted up the fireflies
Close enough to get a good look
Time to mobilize

A Metamorphosis samurai
Y’got a little lord fish and I don’t know why I got a
Metamorphosis samurai..."

---

But they also have a "Wave" song--The Longest Wave

THE LONGEST WAVE - RHCP

The longest wave
Waiting on the wind
To turn my page

Steady your sails
For the butterfly flap
Whatever you do
Don’t close that gap
I’m dreaming of a woman
But she’s just my nap
Your ship is in
Waiting on the tide so I can swim

Whatcha want
Whatcha need
Do you love

Maybe I’m the right one
Maybe I’m the wrong
Just another play, the pirate, and the papillon
Time to call it a day

Maybe you’re my last love
Maybe you’re my first
Just another way to play inside the universe...

By the way, "papillion" is French for butterfly.

And to become a butterfly you first must experience a metamorphosis, or a...
