I see a free bird who soars across the sky
urgent and elegant, disinclined to tarry,
my foolish hand rises and waves good bye
then drops to my side. I think of Barrie.

dedalus,

Thanks for the elegant elegy, it reminds me of the classical Chinese jue ju.

Hope Barrie can hear this.

As i said to Stuart - thanks for posting, I always feel I should write something when these things happen, but never can.

On the money, Brendan. I'm sure barrie would urge a cut here and there (lol) but would be touched and proud of such beauty in his name.

A very beautiful tribute. Thank you for sharing.

A "free bird" indeed.

You'll hate me for saying this, Brendan, but it's quite touching.
