    I came back from Vietnam and my wife would sing this song to me at night when i woke up screaming. Memories are not always good.

      Sorry for your loss.. Moms are special. They suffer so much from birthing you, nurturing you, protecting you and worrying about you as you grow and learn, and it continues even as you grow into adulthood and become a mother yourself. You follow the same course by the examples she set for you. You become her. That's why you never truly lose her because she lives within you.

I met a girl named Susan who wouldn't leave my side. I must have kissed her about 50 times, all the while listening to side one of the James Taylor album "Mud Slide Slim and the Blue Horizon"

    Michelle brings incredible innocence and sincerity in the intro, like a gently flowing stream. Then, all harmonies hit. The words and music open the floodgates. I could cry knowing such a powerful, beautiful musical era is long gone, never to return. Or maybe. In my novel, Soothing The Savage Beat, by E. Augustine, I describe a dystopian future where such beautiful, sensible music has long been forgotten, but may be revived in an attempt to restore sanity in a world gone mad. Music is the therapy we need. And we need both. Even today, but by tomorrow we'll be desperate for both.
