Hi Carol that is a beautiful song! I'm sure it wíll be heart felt at the service as well. It does make me wonder what the musical is about since the song is deep spíritually.


Hi Dan,

It's going to be hard for me to get through the singing of it, but I wíll
call on everything I have to do this thing in tribute to my brother-in-law.
As for the play Bonnie wrote (I'm so embarassed I can't remember her last name!), it was about a young boy in a bad home situation... abuse,
etc... who determined to run away.  The song is sung to him by a visit-
ing fairy god mother (spírit-guide, angel, what-have-you) who appears in his room in the dead of night the day before he is set to take off with his little nap sack filled with all his little boy treasures.  So yes, the under-lying theme is spíritual in nature, for the fairy god mother is alerting him
to the ultimate or hígher truth in operation here on the éarth plane where
things can sometimes seem so unfair and out of balance.  

It calls an incident to mind that happened when I was the tender age of
22.  I was seeking and exploring, delving into metaphysícs in a family of lapsed Catholics and a father who had done a complete about face and entered the realms of Christian Science..!  Needless to say, my explorations (that and my "hippy" politics and inclinations...!) cast me immediately into the role of black sheep!  I had one older woman... the mother of a friend of mine... who understood the journey I was on, having embraced it herself many years previous, and who acted in the role of sort of counselor and mentor to me.  I was always an ardent advocate of justice, and was going on and on one day about all the unfairness in this world and its system, and she looked at me with deep compassion and mothed these words which I never forgot.  She said, "Carol, if you're looking for fairness, don't look for it here in the éarth plane, for you'll not find it...."   Her message was that ther IS, in point of fact, an ultimate universal fairness, but it is hard to accept the reality of that when steeped in three dimensional reality and third density consciousness.  You have to go deeper (or hígher) to be able to recognize the ultimate fairness that rules the universe, and cannot expect it to be revealed here in the mundane events of every day éarth existence.  She was so right!

Anyway, I have lost touch with my fellow travelor Bonnie.  She was part of the group with whom my late husband and I travelled to Péru with Dannion Brinkley and his beautiful lady (inside AND out of the day and for twenty some odd years in his life, the lovely and wise Franklyn Smith), and she had written the musical as part ascertaining a degree in music and wanted she, myself, and my husband to perform it for Dannion and our fellow travelors at the farewell dinner in Lima on our last night in Péru.
I never fogot the song, and I find it's lyrics strangely comforting.
