Written originally in response to a request from the unofficial Joni Mitchell myspace, this item will make most sense to those familiar with her work........

 

 

Her blue light of beauty shines
Through pen and paint and songs divine
Spreading thoughts of gentleness
Tinged with hope and angst and trust
Such melodies and tonal blends
And all that soaring voice transcends
All I've ever known before or since
The night in the city which commenced
My journey from life's innocence

 

Clouds soon gave more food for thought
Both sides were searched and answers sought
Until the summer lawns hissed quiet but loud
Court in the spark that shines so clear and proud
Aisles of roses stretched for miles
A talented artist painted smiles
Serenely graceful all the while
Woodstock to Mingus there's no denial
Joni has a unique style.
