How Did That Go?
I remember not too long ago
Took my hand, said where do you want to go?
We were young want to, run the age together
Thought the time was on our side forever
(Chorus)
How did that go?
How did that song go?
We sang it far, we sang it for
The song had found an end before
Now how did that go?
Summer came then fell so far away
All the same when winter came to stay
I never left to put the dream aside
You never stayed to make me your bride
(Chorus)
Father Time then met Mother Nature
We arrived to find our kind of maker
And I sighed for that was all to do
And you cried for what I meant to you
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
It is done now we hold the grey
It is fine now I often pray
Recalling love that summer day
A fleeting lifetime had flown away
(Chorus)
(Repeat and fade out)

I Keep Writing Poems ...
You keep placing bombs
I want all my meanings
To be close to love psalms
You want to fry all
Your cooking pot to roost
You want all the bygones
Keep focus on your roast
Your have no deeper thoughts
Than what you have to boost
I’d never felt more shambles
Than some offering of the too
When a witness has to ramble
To make sense of the root
And explain away the silliness
Of grown men for the truth
Who only brags to offer
When none more is to boot

True North - Audiobook barred by Olga
Here is a brief synopsis:
Scarred. Hopeless. Lost. Alexa Cross leaves Los Angeles with a scarred heart, beat-up car, and a secret. She's ready to move on and leave her past behind, but fate has had a way of knocking her right back down. Marooned in the middle of nowhere, she imagines misfortune has dealt its final blow, but this time, destiny seems to have a different plan when she ends up in a place aptly called The Last Resort. Reassembling shattered lives is what innately sexy, bar owner Zane Abbamonte does best, and it rarely ends well for him. When he sees a woman stranded on the side of the road, desperate and alone, the otherwise irascible biker rescues her without hesitation, but Zane harbors secrets of his own. When Alexa begins to uncover the truth about Zane, the weight of her past comes crashing back. Her instincts say, "Run!" but her heart tells her to stay. Glimpsing the chance for a future together, Zane and Alexa must confront their "ghosts" and navigate through their fears. Will The Last Resort be the end of their encounter or the beginning of everything they desire? Find out in True North.

New Audiobooks narrated by Olga!
The first one is a summary and analysis of Paulo Coelho's Warrior of the Light. He is a writer I enjoy very much and was pleased to be asked to narrate the summary version of this book. I actually used to carry a copy with me, until I gave it to someone I felt really would benefit from it. Coelho's writing is very thoughtful and introspective with a lot of emphasis on soul development and deeper understandings in life experiences. The purpose of the summary is to act as a companion piece to the original work and also an explanation, a "cliff notes" version so to say.
Please click on the link below to check out a sample and pick up a copy via Audible if you are already a member. You can also try Audible out for 30 days free and get a free copy that way!

"No" sounds like "Go" !
I recall the moment we we on the edge of the plane looking out....instead of butterflies in my stomach, I just totally surrendered into trust, that I was going to be okay and I was with people who I could count on, who wouldn't let me down. We rolled out of the plane and began our descent, which truly just felt like being underwater but much more windier. The parachute opened and we soared in the sky at sunset, in what might have been the most extraordinary and metaphysical feeling of my life.
This film project is also a Leap of Faith for me and for the all of us on the crew; trust that we will be able to find the support and raise the money we need with your help. Trust that this is a project seeded in pure love from the heart and soul bringing like-minded artisans, filmmakers and people to share the journey with us.
Life is about the journey, not the destination. - Chinese proverb

Como's Celebration in the Panolian
The procession up Main Street that kicked off Como's Hill Country Blues Celebration is pictured on the front page of today's (Feb. 7, 2012) Batesville paper, The Panolian! We Como citizens were celebrating the fact that many historic photos, recordings, and films of our local musicians - most of them made by musicologist Alan Lomax in 1959 and in the 1970's - were being placed in the Como Library. Thanks for the historic items, as well as for the Celebration, go to many folks and organizations, but especially to the Alan Lomax Collection, the Jessie Mae Hemphill Foundation, the Association for Cultural Equity, the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress, Como Librarian Alice Pierotti, and singer Olga Wilhelmine. See the picture here below.

Where Y'at Review
Olga Whatever You Want 219records
New Orleans-based blues singer Olga is back with an album that seems anything but the genre she usually sings. Teaming up with North Mississippi Allstars drummer Cody Dickinson, the duo has crafted a purely pop album that fits more with contemporary adult listening, teeming with smoothly produced guitar licks and melodic, slight bass.
Often compared to Bonnie Raitt in vocal stylings, the comparison proves even more apt with Whatever You Want, as the album is eerily reminiscent of Raitt’s early ‘90s work. Though not necessarily musically revolutionary, as far as a commercially successful album goes, Olga and Dickinson are solid gold in their partnership, with songs like the title track and “Better in Some Way” creating a sweet soundscape of layered harmonies and driving drums. Those wanting a truly bluesy Olga may have to wait but Whatever You Want makes for some easy listening in the meantime.—April Siese

Redtailed Daredevil
I anxiously waited for the light to turn green so that I could pull up and get out of the car to see this daring hawk up close. The light changed and I pulled up and got out of the car. I approacehed the hawk and he seemed to wait for me. He looked me over and I spoke to him. I praised him for his beauty and guts to take on a large bird like that, one that was almost his size! Then I said, “you are a young one aren’t you?” He was not as large as other full grown hawks I have seen and at that he fluffed his chest and showed me his baby feathers underneath. It was at this time that I had the feeling the hawk was a “he”.
We looked at each other a while longer and then I thanked him. I turned to walk back to the car and at this he decided to lift off and swoop down in front of me, flying right past then up into an oak tree, presumably to wait for another pigeon!

new mantra: Living the Dream.
Indeed! It is true and he meant it. You know what? So do I. I was left pondering why it took me so long to realize this "truth" and more importantly, that I needed to incorporate it into my daily thoughts pronto! Our thoughts manifest into our deeds and they also are the nucleus of all things that come into our lives, good and bad. So instead of thinking bad thoughts, change them into good. Manifesting the positive---> Living the Dream. Thank you Mr. Joe on Continental flight 883.
