Autumn Leaves
Come walk with me among the falling leaves
and share the final moments of many lives
well lived beneath the full and ripened sun.
We will bid farewell, and mark the passing
of each precious and glorious life.
You're welcome Barry. I thought Cassidy's interpretation of Autumn Leaves was incredibly beautiful. She was a marvelous talent, whose leaf fell from the tree way too early.

Beautiful and touching! And wow... she made that sound like a completely new song.
What a gorgeous video, and beautiful images. Fall is bittersweet, isn't it?
I liked her version of this song very much.
Jo - I think fall is glorious, but I totally agree that it is bittersweet. I'm so glad you enjoyed the video.
TallTchr - Cassidy was a remarkable artist - for me it was like listening to the song for the very first time.
I love the still picture and the song and video by Eva Cassidy. Thank you Paula, I'm going to borrow the Vid for my Facebook site. :-)
Gordon, I'm so glad you like the picture (wish I had taken it) and Eva Cassidy was truly a very special artist - ENJOY! :D
