The Best Carpe Diem Poems

Life is Fine This life is fine The world is mine Though I can’t stop The hands of time The birds all sing And flowers bloom The sun still shines And chases gloom And I can view The sparkling sea And all the stars Just dance with me The clouds, they hide And I must seek The creatures small At me, they peek The grass is cool Beneath my feet The water dew Now wets my cheek I have true friends A family And hope of an Eternity A place where I Will not fear death Where all is sweet Upon my breath Where tears will cease to touch my face And I am blessed By Heaven’s Grace My life is fine The world is mine This is my time To truly shine Eileen Manassian

Avery Parrish(piano)-Jazz After Hours-Orch Erskine Hawkins

A most long and sad day. It was a day of work, but not of great progress. The energy in the world was off, I could feel it. It´s almost 3am, and I started this morning at 7.45, that is what you call a full day at it, At least, I didnt sit in traffic. Ending now the night, with possibly the best kind of music for a day like this one. The great man Erskine Hawkins, after digging about I manged to get some info on him!!! 1989 Inductee Lifework Award for Performing Achievement C omposer and trumpet player Erskine Hawkins drew on memories of a neighborhood nightspot for his classic big band standard "Tuxedo Junction", a jazzy number that became the most popular song of the World War II era. Hawkins was born in Birmingham in 1914, the son of a U.S. soldier who lost his life in military action during the first world war. The young musician began playing drums at the age of 7, moved on to the trombone, then decided at the age of 13 to channel his musical energies into playing

David Bowie - RIP - Gave Us Magic all of his life - A Great Loss for British Music and Progress

It´s the last day of Christmas. Loss after loss, so many of the huge starts are leaving us, and now arrived in other cosmic places. David Bowie the White Duke now resting, ashes to ashes. Many and much of all he did, has had and will remain to have - a profund impact for many years to come. A man with an incredible ability to go beyond, and keep pushing through generations, breaking, exploring and defying with a brilliant flamboyant British deterimation, and endless vision. David was always progresive, his own man, who even at the age of 69 remaind himself, faithful to music. Doing it as he wanted until the end, a great loss, more than a Hollywood star, we are thankful, to have witnessed our British megastar RIP. https://video-mad1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hvideo-xpf1/v/l/t42.4659-2/12554857_1259548144060634_1231831770_n.mp4?oh=5d5a1f2d076e8a1ebdfa9230765a6bf5&oe=5696CF38

That's Life [from Sinatra A Man And His Music Part II]

Changing the Tune, this song must be played at my funeral. Do this for me, and if you can, hand out the lyrics, and ask all involved to sing itwith all their heart. I have been a puppet, a pirate a pauper......I´ve been up and over out, and I know one thing, each time I find myself flat on my face, I PICK myself up, and get back in the race. That´s life........
