YELLOW RIBBON

I'm comin' home, I've done my time
Now I've got to know what is and isn't mine
If you received my letter telling you I'd soon be free
Then you'll know just what to doIf you still want me
If you still want me
Whoa, tie a yellow ribbon 'round the ole oak tree...

Blast from the past...was invited to Tony Orlando's One night only performance at the Singapore Indoor Stadium...so many extra tickets but no takers? why?? Tony who my colleagues asked...good heavens!..Am i that old? hahaha...Boss said you got to be kidding me...he must have sung at Raffles Hotel in 1874! lol

Well they all missed out on a real moving concert when Tony turned it into a mini Led Zeppelin/Black Sabbath night and rocked the crowds wild....Imagine... all those old timers jamming their heads and swinging their arms in the air...what mayhem...ahaha Knock 3 times for a groovy kind of love! Toni Wine..the original singer/songwriter of "Groovy Kind of Love", Candida and the voice behind Sugar Sugar brought the house down ...timeless songs that just rock u with so much warmth and sentimentalism...


The yellow ribbon project...unlocking the 2nd prison...social stigmas and the like...the ex offender has got to face society again and mend the broken glass...psychological prison far worse than being in the actual one...

THE NORTH FACE


Sagarmatha..Mount Everest ...

Sherpas ascending into the distant horizon
A million fluttering flags carries blessings in the wind
Goddess of nature, mother of the universe
A thousand birds flapping their golden wings
Respectfully i bow down and at the very summit
Music and dancing of infinite magical nets unfolds
Assemblies of daikinis within the great sphere
Tremble and the brilliant essence of peace emanates
Hook me to your ever blazing heart
At the Cholapass the white glacier bounds all under oath..
..everest base camp ..experience it in all her grandeur.
I still have my mountain to climb...still Unsurmountable ..trip of a lifetime..can i make it to the milky way to see the lights are fading? always ending in tragic results...am out of oxygen..climb every mountain search high and low...when will it ever end..highest goals and ideals...the pinnacles of success...THE symbol of achievement..meet me at the top of the mountain..yoodle le hihoo...
chiLL out..have an ice cold Everest Beer..

cute lil dirty kidd
A bumpy road lies ahead...
