I was in that HS classroom at the end of this video and have now come back here to tearfully enjoy this song and remember that experience. Thank you all!
So wonderful to hear this cheerful, joyous song once again. I will always cherish my time at the Western Wind workshop. Thank-you Elliot for your music!
Elliot, as always, you nailed it again! Todd, beautiful video to accompany it! A great combination to lift a dark mood. Bravo, my friends in The Western Wind!!! Love, Herb.😘
i thank You God for most this amazing day:for the leaping greenly spirits of trees and a blue true dream of sky;and for everything which is natural which is infinite which is yes (i who have died am alive again today, and this is the sun's birthday; this is the birth day of life and love and wings and of the gay great happening illimitably earth) how should tasting touching hearing seeing breathing any-lifted from the no of all nothing-human merely being doubt unimaginable You? (now the ears of my ears awake and now the eyes of my eyes are opened) e e cummings (in 'complete poems 1904 - 1962')
If it's any consolation, I was happily surprised when I saw your picture, and it brought up some nice memories of us singing together! (And, yes-- and aria fro. You would've been great, too!) :-)
This is STILL one of my favorites… such a wonderful piece! Chag sameach and happy Earth Day! 🌞 🎶 🔯

Dr. Boerger I can't believe you have been in this recording the entire time and I didn't even notice!!!
i thank You God for most this amazing
day:for the leaping greenly spirits of trees
and a blue true dream of sky;and for everything
which is natural which is infinite which is yes
(i who have died am alive again today,
and this is the sun's birthday; this is the birth
day of life and love and wings and of the gay
great happening illimitably earth)
how should tasting touching hearing seeing
breathing any-lifted from the no
of all nothing-human merely being
doubt unimaginable You?
(now the ears of my ears awake and
now the eyes of my eyes are opened)
