Left Alone feat. Holly Palmer.

A beautiful song written by B. Holiday & Mal Waldron.

and "Tic, tics".

Good music to listen to on summer evenings..
Jim Black played this with his trio recently.

and I like this poem;

 "Sensation"

Par les soirs bleus d’été, j’irai dans les sentiers,

Picoté par les blés, fouler l’herbe menue:

Rêveur, j’en sentirai la fraîcheur à mes pieds.

Je laisserai le vent baigner ma tête nue.

Je ne parlerai pas, je ne penserai rien:

Mais l’amour infini me montera dans l’âme,

Et j’irai loin, bien loin, comme un bohémien,

Par la Nature,---heureux comme avec une femme.

- Arthur Rimbaud, March 1870 -

"Sensation"

On the blue summer evenings, I shall go down the paths,
Getting pricked by the corn, crushing the short grass:
In a dream I shall feel its coolness on my feet.
I shall let the wind bathe my bare head.

I shall not speak, I shall think about nothing:
But endless love will mount in my soul,
And I shall travel far, very far, like a gipsy,
Through the countryside - as happy as if I were with a woman.
