Sand" arrangement


YouTube - Willing "Polly Come Home" (Robert Plant and Allison Krauss "Raising Sand" arrangement


... feet slide into soft moccasins ... stepping to the planked porch
... swaying gently with each step .. come to a halt in the center of a
spring fresh sun beam ... slides right foot in curve round back of
standing leg ... dip with slow respect into deep curtsey ...

fingertips hold woven skirt of leaf green hues ...
softly whispers ... Dear Sir! voice reflecting smile ... Dear dear
Sir! ... in silence, breath steady and calm ... smooth motion of
raising to stand ... head gently bends to honor ... Thee have given
such a joyous gift .. or may this one say a bundle of gifts Sir!

... voice deepens, filled with emotion ... Sir has called this woman
in Wisdom's name ... tis a great honor ... as this one believes
Thee already knows ... tender smile flickers ..

... a gift of heart's reading ... Thee truly see ...
truly know ... and also truly connects with this one's
layered heart of life and time ... ah such is a Blessing! ...

companions are sweet special in these times Dear Mr. MMC! Well met!
Thee have spoken through Mother of Love ... a strong call for a soul
and deeply special ... Blessings fill this one's heart!


.. twirls round .. flaring skirt in circles of light ...Thee are
coming in a visit! ... bends in a curve with head tilted to laugh at
the sky .. soft cooing comes ... echoes of a tribal cheer ...

..twirling feet stop ... skirt continues round then back when stopped
by posture .. laugh splits into giggles ...
..suddenly leans forwards ... as if talking to a wee one ... and all
shall be grand for Thy visit! ... resumes standing, arms open in wide
welcoming motion ...

The beatles - Honey Pie

this one shall order daffodil days and early plum blossoms for Sir's approval! ... once in a while this land of real can seem as the south of France with the right dappled light ...

...burst into another bubbly giggle ... tis one is becoming a child in
delighted frenzy of joy!

outstretch.. shall lift ye so do nay mistrust thy body or My
strength to hold ye... breathe...

of desperation plain... :: yes! ... she leaps maintaining ...
midair... bring arms forward..::

::... catches thee... rolls thee forward in arms.. like a curl...
not resisting gravity... then lifts thee by waist... propels thee
upwards... alone.. for moment flight tis yours...

...hand quickly leads arm to curve under thy hip while other

movement continues to bring thee to chest...slides left leg

...holds ye tightly... suspended above floor... ye curled
tight... whispers::

... let it flow now... whatev'er tis next... movement's
true now... thee are a creator again... a choreographer
again... dream lady... dream...

:: heartbeat throbs... strong...
ragged pant of breath... underbrush melts
away before racing form... calves push through ...
arms taut... hands poised ...like breaking trail
through snow... ::

:: firey whisper :: coming for ye girl...

:: heart now the pulsing waves of a sun-drench
desert...:: ... coming...

flight... then resettle ::

:: wild wind howls thru wolf :: ....coming
m'lady! all shall be forthcoming!

:: promises soar in pursuit ahead...
encircling abode in waves unseen... longing
climbs... amongst eaves naked with need...
drumming pulse filled... with all We shall be!

... pace slows as old oak appears
in view... reaching into branched arms
slides effortlessly into the cradle
of the tree... ::


:: ...echoes of heart-call... reverberating still...
pulsing waves of foam... ripples visible, to
the eyes of time...

inwardly praying... raging hotness... the sacrifice...
reaching.. out... reaching ... offering ...

astral wolf paces round dream sleeper
licks aire... as she's safely kept inside... ::

:: whispers :: hunger sniffs thy heat...

:: sweaty effort pours ... into night's winds....
divine effort... of droplets release ... leaps
soundlessly from tree... stretches hand
toward window... groans a whisper::

... open to My song of love baby...
feel now... how such a song grows...
feel... the soft brush of pillow on your hair
the tender slide of bedding 'long thy skin
the strength of bed that cushions thy weight...
for this! is!
...the barest caress of My touch, girl...

...I walk through the near darkness, feeble yellow pools of light illuminate my path toward the building...

::::bang of the double metal and glass doors as I hurry through.. late again:::

I turn left after passing through the lobby; most people turn right...

103, 107...wrong hallway... Walking, quickly walking back toward the lobby...
I pause for a moment and look left, look straight ahead...I should instinctively know where to go....

...I hurry along the hall listening to the click, click of my heels on the tile...

:::::dreaming of well worn Merril's and old jeans as I make my way down the hall::::: 112, 115, this is it... I pause for a moment and listen to the familiar strains from within....

Why am I nervous? :::whoo breathe in...whoo...breathe out... I wipe my damp palms on my shirt, tug at my skirt.. I raise my hand to knock.......

I shouldn't knock on the door...I was invited......

I quietly, slowly open the door and peer inside...someone sees me and comes to greet.....

::::::home, warmth, comfort, home:::::::::

I've posted this one before, but it's an obscure, almost unknown tune originally recorded by Stan Kenton. The tune is "Interlude," written by Kenton arranger Pete Rugolo, with lyrics by Bob Russell. It has only been recorded a very few times, and only twice that I've found with vocal. This was the first, and best, with June Christy singing the lyrics and Pete Rugolo himself conducting the orchestra. The arrangement is interesting, almost haunting. Absent are the typical trumpets and saxophone sections of the time (recorded in 1956)--only rhythm section, flutes, strings, and French horns featured behind Ms. Christy--who sings splendidly here. An interesting lyric for the era, as well, speaking of a love affair (possibly illicit), with emotions running from happy to sad to poignant. It could be two-hour movie wrapped into a four-minute tune. Why this hasn't been more popular, I don't know--a captivating tune, lyric, and arrangement that still sounds fresh over a half-century after it was recorded. Several first-rate jazz musicians who enjoyed long and noteworthy careers were among the personnel who performed on this recording--Bud Shank on flute, Red Callender on bass, Howard Roberts on guitar, and Irv Cottler on drums, among others. A great intro to the the "cool" West Coast jazz of the 1950's.

Desire's unseen wings pulls spirit
like a magnet... lifts...

night's waning moon pulses thy heartbeat
thy fragrance... carried on the arms of the
wind... oh love how thee caresses!

feet travel in silence...
brush and branches pulls at garbs as if inviting undressing...
flood heat rushes.... what new torture is tis!

stars circling...
'cross canyon's landscape...
clouds scuttle like delicate lover's bites...

:: hips slip thru darken trees...
thighs briefly tighten before gusting breeze
small leap...hands grips overhang... muscled arms
pulls body 'gainst wall of rising earth...

warm wind from down stream... whips back of
flannel shirt... feet finds grip ...
throw leg round and pushes upward... elbows
crawl... effort rolls into a gentler milieu...
leans now towards uplands... ::


sweat... beads several salty paths...
powerful breath of love press...
:: Me own groan-whisper answer ::
... dream me baby...

eyes scan road... darts body 'cross...
.... using a passing cloud as cover...


sweet girl moves thru dreamscape...
passing through dark...
...yes! ... dream Me girl...
passing through walls...
... thats it darlin...
passing thru starlight...
... deep breath take now, sweetness...

sudden brightness ... flashes...
porch light... flattens body to earth..
breath ... heart flight circles... guides ....
turned swirling as the wind...
I cannot be discovered now!...

baby go back...!!!


our need called foster parent's
feelings to the door...
too loud were we... go back....


:: sudden sting of tears... slow crawl to
tree-friend...

there is no more room inside my skin
pulse grows... strengthens...
reaching through dream-scape...::

:: whispers...:: go back...

:: curses tempt heart to kiss them...
to embrace them...
angrily! are they thrown back to hell... ::

porch light turns off...
darkness flood surroundings once again...

:: leans heavily 'gainst oak tree... back of
head rolls.. hair entangling 'long bark...
agony replaces hope...
paining her whip thru senses...
clenches teeth to bare it... answers ::

all tis!!! tis offered and more!...
for night shall find no cold regret staining
the purity of My love for her...
mingle and burn Me... if thee dare!

shall Learn thy lessons Love... in the waitin...
So dare challenge My resolve!
