Both Sides Now

Rob's memorial service is on Thursday. I won't be able to go. I don't even have time to blog tonight because I have another early call. I'm exhausted. I'm overwrought. I'm stricken with a grief I don't understand and when I finally headed home tonight, I saw this is the sky. Now I have that Joni Mitchell song stuck in my head.


Rows and floes of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons evrywhere
Ive looked at clouds that way

But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on evryone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way
Ive looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
Its cloud illusions I recall
I really dont know clouds at all




But now old friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say Ive changed

Well somethings lost, but somethings gained
In living evry day

Ive looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
Its lifes illusions I recall
I really dont know life at all
