We first posted this shot of the great tenor Ronald Naldi one year ago. Here is a link which tells about this photo and offers a recording of Ron performing on one of his albums of Italian music. But meanwhile, here are the Chiffons offering a tribute of their own.

Reprieve
By Charles Pierre
From a rusted nail
on the south wall
of an old boathouse
weathered to gray,
a small pail of
red impatiens
swings in the mild
November sun,
where the rush
of stark sea wind
has yet to dim
the arc of lush color.
EVA CASSIDY
From her album Songbird.

ANITA O’DAY
“Ah, the apple trees,
Blossoms in the breeze,
That we walked among,
Lying in the hay,
Games we used to play,
While the rounds were sung,
Only yesterday, when the world was young.”

It must be great fun to be a kid living in a tent during an Ocean Grove summer. Instead of bicycles to zoom around the sidewalks of the Village, there are now skateboards and scooters.
I saw a teenager coasting down Mt. Hermon Way on a skateboard, in her gravity defying short shorts, maintaining her decorum all the while speaking on a cell phone. It is certain—-someday she will have a tattoo, and her parents will approve. This is the new look of femininity.
But the Village girl, on her scooter, shows no sign of becoming anything but a proper young lady.
JUDY GARLAND from The Wizard of Oz.
“Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow.
Why then, oh, why can’t I?
“If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow.
Why, oh, why can’t I?”
