Autumn


This is Autumn. She was my first love in high school.
She lives deep in the heart of Texas. I remember our first kiss, seeing the movie premier of Neil Young's "Rust Never Sleeps", watching Shake Russell and Dana Cooper perform at Rockefeller's club in Houston, and a terrible, gut-wrenching breakup the summer before her family moved away.

Ken, since I am signed in at this moment, another comment! (Sorry, can't help myself...) Yes, I could tell that last one was difficult for you, but the effect so beautiful. May be it needs the story behind for others to see.

You have lived life and loved out loud far more than I have...

Is this what it take to be an artist?
