Of talent rediscovered after 40 years,
The artist found working construction,
Getting by in the Detroit trades,
Unaware of his fame on another continent,
Stunned by his late and sudden notice,
Giving hope to all who create in obscurity,
Leaving us moved by a soul well-expressed
In the songs so human and timeless,
Songs so basic to our common lives,
How we yearn for the songs left unwritten.
–Let the links be your guide, and thanks for your time.
