Clos des Trois Roses

“Chantons, voici le temps des roses !
Voici la saison des amours!
Mai nous ramène les beaux jours
Et mille autres charmantes choses
Qui ne peuvent durer toujours !
Chantons, voici le temps des roses !”

SOUBRY is talking! The Lord is calling!

“There’s a very old expression
Called talking to the wall
And it means
You get no answers
Just stone silence

But walls have ears
And you can hear me
When I call”

(J. Armatrading in Talking to the wall)

The two of us together

“O enter with me the gates of delight,
The gates of the garden of man’s desire,
Where spirits, touched by heav’nly fire,
Have planted the trees of life.”

(R.S. Bridges in Invocation to Music)

May 29, 2022 What has been left

We got a flat tire at the fort

“Well, I seen a Cadillac window uptown
And there was nobody aroun’
I got into the driver’s seat
And I drove down 42nd Street
In my Cadillac. Good car to drive after a war”

(Bob Dylan in Talkin’ World War III blues)

The lonely watchtower overlooks the peaceful countryside

“Well, uh, outside in the cold distance
A wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching
And the wind began to howl, hey
All along the watchtower
All along the watchtower”

(Bob Dylan in All along the watchtower)
