V. Corso, how beautiful of you to wish our friend James, such a sweet and musical haρρy birthday!!! Haρρy birthday James!!!
Have as V said, a magical day!!

Magic & music, a great birthday indeed.

Happy birthday!!!!

What great music you inspire. Happy Birthday!

thank you! with all my foolish heart!
it is indeed a strange thing to wake up and see your name
crawling up, or is it down, the right side of oS...
what a bizarre joy! Love to you all..

Uh oh..the day is off to an odd start..
Robert Frost (his real name) ,
drunk and /or stoned, pounded at my door for cigarettes
and a shoulder to cry on, cuz he is being evicted.
I shall miss that guy. But maybe
they will replace him with, say, Lawrence Ferlinghetti,
or....Randall Jarrell?
We shall see...

The songs were a perfect gift.
Especially Van:
"Rave on john donne, rave on thy holy fool
Down through the weeks of ages
In the moss borne dark dank pools...
Oh, what sweet wine we drinketh
The celebration will be held
We will partake the wine and break the holy bread"

Dip that holy bread in some olive oil, yum!
xo thank u....

its jem's birthday!! happy happy birthday, our very own jem!

Ideal choices for the dude's b'day, V. Congrats, Jim, and have a wonderful day.

The party's on! Have a great day. We'll expect you to write about it.

A very happy birthday to you, JME...wishing you a very good year! Sorry about your neighbor, and I hope a nice person moves in.

:)

Happy Birthday JME!!

Happy Birthday, to our delightful, unbalanced friend. Such as these light up the world!

JEM is truly a gem... 'appy B'day.

Happy birthday for ya today here too :).

Rated for raising a glass.

Glad everyone enjoyed the music.

Especially for tr ig:


The closest thing to Dylan (Thomas) musically speaking,

is Van the Man, Celtic lion. bard of ages.

Bob, while he is great, is just too bitter for a birthday.

Considered posting

Under
Milkwood

but that came within the boundaries

of "live streaming"

rugby incongruities

go Wales!

Six Nations is poetry

although I like

Rugby League better

Harelequins, Wasps. Saracens...

these names evoke the warriors and the fight

their game is meant to reproduce

on the pitch.

Our Jem,

not Welsh, it has to be said,

but a bard of Avalon

nonethelesss.

You know what truly sucks, V?
The day after your birthday. All that magical love, all the attention,
and then..it is f-ing monday and gonna rain all day and
nobody loves me anymore cuz it aint my b-day.
;(

Well post something!

Then we'll all come around and rattle your cage.

I DID! NOBODY SAW IT. it aint my b-day no more.
it's a decent post...

I did. I even rated, so there. :p

Happy Birthday James....is there anything I can do for you?
