P.S. Sorry that I'm so far behind with comments. This week and last is/was insane!
As popular as he was, he is still underrated as a lyricist.
No, keep it going! There are a lot of boomers out here.
I was listening to the radio yesterday and focused on the line "every form of refuge has its price" in another song from our generation. There was poetry in some of them.
Love the top photo.
Thank you for a touching treatment of the theme. I may be showing my baby boomer generational bias, but I doubt that 40 years from now people will post photos such as yours accented by lyrics to rap music.
Bring on P Simon's songs, we love them and I love these three images today my friend.

LOVE these photos, esp. the first one! This ('time') is a rich vein for you to mine, brattcat.
You may go on! I like the songs, and the way you illustrate them!
Paul Simon is never out of date.
OH.oh..
The first pic is soooooo GREAT
Is it you ????????

Very creative :-)
But why push them out? I miss them. Saw them perform a couple of times in my teens/20s. I particularly remember on time at Forest Hills Tennis Stadium in Queens. There were lots of parents and kids out for such an nice show. But then there was this warm-up act people were just beginning to hear about, The Doors. Ooh, Jim Morrison did nasty things with the microphone stand.
Lovely post.
Great series to set a very interesting mood, present blended with the past with a fine lyrics!
Never have to apologize for P. Simon! Love all of these shots, BC. Be careful out prowling...some of the alleys have bad guys in them...
Hey--the 60s were prolific times. MB
Beautiful and interesting photos!
This is an absolutely lovely post, Brattcat!
