A Poem by cluelesspen__

I hear Garfunkel singing
I hear Garfunkel's voice echoing in my head
In dreams and in life
tamed beauty in his ethereal voice make me want to surrender

as the troubled water flow
I flow
following the sound of silence
of Garfunkel, the great

I just bought & watched a Paul Simon concert DVD a few days ago & the best part is when Art joins him with that distinctive ethereal voice of his! You've nailed the effect that listening to Garfunkel's high fluid voice has on a person. I don't like "Arthur" in the title, since I've never heard him called that! *wink! wink!* Fondly, Margie

surely they both have great quality in their voices ... Sounds of Silence spoke to an awakening generation of questioning youth ... that revolution still making waves ... odd that Art kind of slid into the shadows compared to Paul ... fine tribute says i ... very talented pair ... i especially like the lines you write of surrender to the cruelties of life ... the balm of water flowing ... the release of trusting a higher power .. letting go you say ... easy to follow along this trip .. from song to head to release ;)
