How do we choose to travel?
What is reliable in the rain?
What is our ultimate destination,
for this time, this journey, or
this day?
We move at the speed of life.
Depending on traffic, others
may chose to follow your path,
but not your direction.

A little cold, little wet,
a little tired and yet
I am here. Still,
full of wonder.
The morning chill leaves
little to the imagination
and much less
to hope for.
Expected, perhaps, as it
always is, this time, this
season is only what
we ask of it.

The answers are far less certain
than even last week, to all those
perennial questions or solutions
you might seek.
What do you believe, or
what do you believe in?
Come Monday, you have fewer
questions than you had last week.
For a while there are less doubts
in what you believe.
Whom do you believe in,
and who believes in you?

I'm like a pencil;
sometimes sharp,
most days
well-rounded,
other times
dull or
occasionally
broken.
Still I write.

David Crosby has been a strong voice in my musical atmosphere for more than four decades.
When I was 12 years old, the album 4 Way Street was left behind at our home after one of my brother’s parties and I became lured into the world of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. Through the years, more albums by the quartet, or solo albums by individual members, or in parings or trios would find their way into my ever-growing record collection.
CSNY were all musicians that demanded attention because of the sound and the songwriting. Crosby, along with Graham Nash, provided the soaring harmonies on so many beautiful songs of an era.
Sadly, this week, David Crosby passed away.
His legacy remains. You can still hear it.
