| Emmylou Harris – The Pearl Lyrics | 3 years ago |
| These three comments are wonderful and share a window into possible meanings, if not only just individual impression and meanings. \n\nYes there are so many ELH fans. The woman is a legend, icon, “Lost (and found) Prophet” and a Pearl herself. I had a chance to meet and witness her grace and compassion pre-show with my in-laws and Grammy-in-law before a show in LA. I’m sure she had pre-show things to do, but she welcomed us none-the-less, and with the highest demonstration of zen-like-in-the-moment priority of honor for each of us. \n\nI resonate most with the most recent post in the string, but all are enlightened. \n\nThe best lyrics or art have open broad meanings that other’s will gain insights and even enlightened the poet/artist themselves. Like something greater [g-o-d]is happening through the expressive, reflective, collective process. \n\nI think Emmy often speaks to the pain of losing a soulmate but also being a collective of artists who truly seek the beauty and tastes of heaven that we are wired to want, just like the angels (like dragons - Satan the light-bringer was metaphorically described as a beautiful dragon) who dwelt in heaven but were hurled to the earth: unquenchable appetites for divine beauty at least then maybe even two dangerous places on the sea. | |
