"Light My Fire" |
Sung By Jose' Feliciano |
Susan's Poetry In Motion |
Jose Monserrate Feliciano was born blind to humble beginnings on September 10, 1945, in Lares, Puerto Rico. One of eleven boys,Jose began his love affair with music at the age of three, when he accompanied his uncle on a tin cracker can. When he was five, his family emigrated to NYC...At eight, he performed for his classmates at P.S.57, and at nine performed for the Puerto Rican Theatre. He wanted to venture beyond the accordian, so he taught himself guitar. Exposed to the rock and roll era of the fifties, Jose was then inspired to sing. At seventeen Jose quit high school, and played coffee houses to support his family, as his father was out of work. He played in Greenwich Village. By the time he was twenty three..he had won two Grammy awards, and was performing all over the world. Three songs that have been milestones for him are "Light My Fire'..."Che Sera"...and of course, "Feliz Navidad". Feliciano and his wife, Susan Omillion have been together since 1971. They have three children and live in Fairfield Hills, Connecticut. Thanks, Alice for top graphic, and thanks to all my friends and fans. |
"Sweet Is The Sound That True Love Brings" |
From The Poetry Collection of Susan Jane Kahon |
I've known a world, full of fire and ice... In it I've lived, but I've also died twice.... I reincarnate, in your sweet, warm embrace Watching the fiery glow on your face.. The Garden of Eden, it sank to grief... When Eve first touched Adam's fig leaf... I feel that same, forbidden desire... I am your Eve, and you are my fire.... I've tangled my hands, deep in your hair.. We've known a passion that's lovely and rare.. As dawn goes down from day to day... I've learned that love is all that does stay.. All of this world, is a performer's stage.. With ranging emotions, from loving to rage.. I have no time for things that are broken I only want words of love, that are spoken... I can't shake your glimmer from my sight.. Holding you now, in the dead of the night... I light a candle, and bask in the glow Soft in the love, with you, that I know... In my hands, I hold the golden key.... It's in your eyes, your sweet love, for me... So why spend the time, with trivial things When enchanted, is the moment, that true love brings.. written by Susan Jane Kahon October 1. 2003 ICYU 5:21pm..CDT Recovered: Sept. 16th, 2023 Some Links & Counters may no longer be Active! |
