Time Machine

This tune comes from playing around with the words on a road sign just east out of Kansas City "East Fork Sni-A-Bar Creek"

Sni-A-Bar Creek

lyrics by Steve O'Dell; music and performance by Pippa Letsky

Oh How the Sparrow Flies

I was passing a KLLM truck on the highway. What can I say? That’s about all there is to say about this one.

The tune developed from a tiny snippet in a market recording. The name came from the dictionary. Apparently Quaker ladies are a type of flower, also called little bluets. According to the Westborough Community Land Trust, they are native wildflowers that grow in small clusters or large eye-catching patches of blue or white.

Quaker Ladies (Little Bluets)

Originally this was called “Pest Control,” because it started up with a visit from pest control people after I got stung by three ground bees. But it never was finished until FAWM 2025. This tune has taught me a lot about the Dorian mode.

U-Turn on Green

This tune sat in my unfinished folder for the longest time. I mean, years! Then within the last ten hours or so of FAWM 2025, it decided it was time to get finished and it slipped in just before the bell. It came, I think, from a good cup of tea that hit the spot one afternoon long ago.

Merry Christmas to all, Raise your glass put a wreath on your door

This Is Christmas

Tomorrow is a place you get to one day
Unravel the threads of the hats you once wore 
You hear a voice from deep inside your soul
Saying you've been here before
