Subject: RE: Lyr Add: FLOWER OF LEBANON
it is a new song. It has made it to Gaza. I have the utmost concern for everyone getting hurt in this war and do not wish harm to anyone. I talked to the wife of the Palestinian farmer (ex) today and she said that everyone (at least females) in the family over there suffers from migraines because of all the stress. She also said she has heard from several women over their who can somehow relate to the song. I find it not only inoffensive but actually quite noble that she is going to essentially be the next Mother Teresa after all that she has gone through.

The tune is still vague....wants to be sort of Penny Evans (Flying Cloud), Bonny Laboring Boy, Star of Logy Bay..I move it away from one and it pops into the other....Jacqui..I told her you might sing it in England and she was really honored and would love a copy of you singing it.

Bombs are bombs and wounds are wounds and everyone hurts the same folks. mg
