Saturday Poetry Corner: Falling Leaves

 

 

 

 

 Little leaves fall softly down

Red and yellow, orange and brown

Whirling, twirling round and round

Falling softly to the ground.

Little leaves fall softly down

To make a carpet on the ground.

Then, swish, the wind comes whistling by

And sends them dancing to the sky.

Flashback Friday: A Fifth Of Beethoven

 

 

  

"A Fifth of Beethoven" an innovative disco version of Ludwig van Beethoven's classic
Symphony No.5 by American composer Walter Murphy and the Big Apple Band,
was released as a single by Private Stock Records in 1976 and debuted at number 80
on the Billboard Hot 100 charts.  It quickly climbed to the number 1 spot and was
the most popular song in America fifty years ago today on October 9, 1976.

The following year, "A Fifth of Beethoven" (the "fifth" in the song's title is a pun
 referencing a liquid measurement equal to one-fifth of a gallon, a popular size
for bottles containing liquor) was included on the best-selling soundtrack of
 the hit American dance film, " Saturday Night Fever".

"A RIGHTEOUS KING"

 

 Behold, a king will reign in righteousness,

and princes will rule with justice.

Each will be like a shelter from the wind,

a refuge from the storm,

like streams of water in a dry land,

like the shadow of a great rock in an arid land. 

Then the eyes of those who see will no longer be closed,

and the ears of those who hear will listen.

The mind of the rash will know and understand,

and the stammering tongue will speak clearly and fluently. 

No longer will a fool be called noble,

nor a scoundrel be respected.

For a fool speaks foolishness;

and his mind plots iniquity.

He practices ungodliness

and speaks falsely about the LORD; 

he leaves the hungry empty

and deprives the thirsty of drink.

The weapons of the scoundrel are destructive; 

he hatches plots to destroy the poor with lies,

even when the plea of the needy is just. 

But a noble man makes honorable plans;

he stands up for worthy causes. 

(Isaiah 32:1-8)

Will Hurricane Isaias Form In The Gulf?

 

 

  

 

  Potentially becoming a Cat 4 hurricane, "Isaias" is strengthening in the
  Gulf and will pose a major threat to the United States by this weekend.

Please pay attention to any special weather bulletins and information
 from state and local officials and be prepared if you live in an area
 which will be effected by this dangerous storm. 

I pray the One who rules wind and water will weaken this storm
considerably and send it back out to sea where it will do no harm!
