This old guitar by John Denver

在學習吉他伴唱的高中歲月,學過這首歌
也表演過幾次,經過四十幾年,它仍然感
動著我,有點像是張喬治老師對這個樂器
衷心的感謝辭,但又多了一些,我認為所
有喜愛吉他的人,都會同意,老吉他帶給
他生命的意義和這首雋永的歌一樣。




This Old Guitar

This old guitar taught me to sing a love song,
it showed me how to laugh and how to cry.
It introduced me to some friends of mine and brightened up some days.
It helped me make it through some lonely nights.
What a friend to have on a cold and lonely night

This old guitar gave me my lovely lady, it opened up her eyes and ears to me.
it brought us close together and I guess it broke her heart,
it opened up the space for us to be, what a lovely place and a lovely space to be.

This old guitar gave me my life my living all the things you know I love to do
To serenade the stars that shine from a sunny mountainside,
and most of all, to sing my songs for you, I love to sing my songs for you,
yes I do, you know, I love to sing my songs for you.

退休隨筆

 實際的退休日,應該是2024元旦,沒有任何的儀式,只有自己知道,我不由得想起竹中直人主演的美食野武士,第一集他前一天退休了,隔天一大早因為鬧鐘沒響,他匆匆忙忙下床,嘴裡咕噥著老婆為什麼沒有叫他,一邊繫著領帶,然後才看到桌上放著昨天同事祝賀的鮮花,畢竟過去幾十年都是如此醒來,還真...
