On November 2 in 2000, Al Grierson passed. Certainly one of a kind and a literate songwriter who drew from spirituality, philosophy, history and more.
"May you set your shoes to dancing
in the hour of your death
and meet it with the courage it deserves
May your shadow pass in pirouettes
of such amazing grace
that the tears of those who mourn you
disappear without a trace
In a smoke that shapes their sorrow
to the fading of your feet
In a ring around the rainbow
where the circle is complete"
This is Ray Wylie Hubbard performing Grierson's "Resurrection"
