"a song from the echoes"



richie

he sang
loud in the quiet
freedom
freedom
teeth out
his soul
still
cries out
like a motherless child
far from home
freedom

- jude




pacific ocean sunset song

could you carry me home
it's a long highway song
i'm singing
i long
for your sweet lovin' lips
night concrete shadows
behind
do my walls hide
distant rocky mountain mist
my lonely thumb tries
to listen to you
morning air sighs
big sur blues
deep as my eyes
water warm
leaves salt where
of sand
my fingertips bleed
must i
concede
your mirror
empty seeds blow
where i used to be
it's a long highway song
i'm singing
i'm alone
deep within a
pacific ocean sunset song

 Reviews of "a street of his own"
Reviewed by Ronald Hull
Reviewed on June 15, 2017
Although I thumbed a bit and discovered the turned up noses of "important" people that gave me a ride and the cold and sun and wind that can take the life out of you while waiting for that ride, I often was the one picking the hitchhiker in my hundred dollar ride and taking them somewhere.

Big Sur has the blues. A 30 mile portion is now closed because of landslides and need to rebuild the road on both ends, making California 1 impassable and stranding those living in having businesses in that stretch. They have to hike out to get essentials. One end of the rebuilding will be done by fall.

Richie Havens first got my attention when I saw a film of Woodstock where the camera was right up in his toothless (?) face while he sang "Here comes the sun" and "Freedom," with such conviction that I immediately became a fan. Nobody could display emotion like he could or on the guitar like Jimi Hendrix.

I've sung that song along that highway
There's nothing quite like it.
Good vibes.

Love ya!
