Song For Dolce’ – A Bootleg Rehearsal Recording And Words From The Heart

I heard a quote on one of those award shows.  The quote was by Carrie Fisher and delivered by Meryl Streep.  “Take your broken heart, make it in to art”.

After the passing of our beloved Dolce’, the pain of losing her also opened my heart, my creativity and my hope for the future.  The truth be told….”we don’t get out of this world alive” but what we do and how we contribute to the collective will define and direct the energetic flow of change.  I believe that’s really all we have…each other.

After Dolce’s death I took a walk out to the end of the point at Menominee Park (Dolce’ and I used to sneak out there and as she stood on a rock in shallow water, I’d pray).

This time without her, I looked up and said, “God, people are telling me…look for Dolce’ in the waves, in the rush of leaves, in the wind…dear God, what is Dolce’ “in” right now!?”   Without missing a beat, a voice occupied my inner ear.

“Janet, Dolce’ is in LOVE”.

’nuff  said.

Thank you, God.

Song For Dolce’

In the autumn of our lives, we anticipate a change

How ironic and sublime, is how we remain the same

Nothing’s fallen, nothing’s lost, the tree of life grows on and on

Although the forecast calls for pain, we drink the wine, we drink the rain

In the autumn of our lives, there’s a place where love survives

Knowing spring will come what may, we learn to die to live again

In the autumn of our lives, with a wisdom in our eyes

We look back from where we came and long to live for love again.

 

This is a rehearsal of our song “Song For Dolce” obviously, the sonic quality is bad but the energy was amazing.

I wrote the lyric, melody and bass line and my husband, Tom Washatka (brilliant saxophonist) wrote the chords.

Musicians on this rehearsal tape:

Tom Washatka sax

Tom Theabo guitar

Ryan Korb drums

Randy Sabien violin

Bruce Lammers bass

    Hello everyone, it’s Reema here!
    I work as a professional an essay writer and have created this content with the intent of changing your life for the better. I started honing my writing skills in my school years. I learned that my fellow students needed writing help—and they were willing to pay for it. The money was enough to help pay my tuition for my remaining semesters of college.
    Ever since high school, I have continued to work as a professional writer. I was hired by a writing company based in the United Kingdom. Since then, the essays that I have written have been sold around Europe and the United States.
    In my line of work, I have become familiar with hearing, “Reema, can you help me meet my writing assignment deadline?” I know that I can provide this service.

    Hello and welcome to my blog . I’m Kyran.
    I have always dreamed of being a writer but never dreamed I’d make a career of it. In college, though, I helped a fellow student who needed help. She could not stop telling me how well I had done. Word got around and someone asked me for to write their paper just a week later. This time they would compensate me for my work.
    During the summer, I started doing research papers for students at the local college. It helped me have fun that summer and even funded some of my college tuition. Today, I still offer my writing services to students.

    Hello All
    Thanks for checking out my about page. My name is Camden.
    I have worked since high school in this niche. My interest in writing started at a young age. I wrote poetry as a child and eventually went on to work with my school newspaper.
    This early tryst into journalism eventually led me to academic writing. There is plenty of work for skilled writers. I specialize in essays, but have the skills to do all types of academic writing.
    Email me for more information about rates and a price quote. I’m looking forward to helping you.
