Black Walnut Folk Group. Kitchener



Been bound by COVID
Three years now
Nasty bastardly FEAR.
Now back on track
Coffee at the back.
Run by some animated souls
Bettering the goals.
Three bucks, just three
For hours of fun.
Sign your name
To the list.
Strictly list run.
Lots of invented song.
Those usually long.
Croce Lightfoot Joni
Chapin Hank Snow
Let ‘em go.

Friend Rick did
“Those were the days my Friend
We thought they’d never end
We’d sing and dance
Forever and a day.”
