  The Hindu : Rhymes and reasons
For centuries, nursery rhymes have been passed orally from generation to generation.
Rhymes like the evergreen Twinkle twinkle Little star set to tune by Mozart himself are of much value.
While some schools and individuals have made and continue to make attempts to introduce these subjects as rhymes, the task of bringing about a national reformation is not an easy one.

When librarian Chris Roberts decided to delve into the meanings behind various nursery rhymes he was not prepared for the sordid tales of sex, religion and politics that would emerge.

Roberts says his favourite nursery rhyme character is Kitty Fisher, who appears in the rhyme Lucy Locket.

  Rhymes and Reasons
Mark Twain wrote, “History does not repeat itself, but it does rhyme.” If he had quipped “nature” or “universe” instead of “history,” he could have been pointing to a science of patterns.
But for me, the real reason for the quest is to help us soar like the hawk.
As the hawk’s wings evolved to fit the air, so too do we personally grow to fit how we understand the world to be.

This is not to belittle their contributions, but rather to express the admittedly cynical view that just because an expat came for the admirable reasons, doesn't mean he/she stayed for them.
The number of truly inspired people in the world who are eager to do their part and more if necessary in solving the world's (and Ukraine's) problems is astounding.

Until the release of Rhymes and Reasons, most people knew of "Leaving, On a Jet Plane" only as a Peter, Paul, and Mary tune.
Rhymes and Reasons didn't just mark the debut of John Denver, it hinted at what was yet to come.

 Rhymes & Reasons by Carole King CD
Like its immediate predecessor, 1971's MUSIC, 1972's RHYMES AND REASONS had to stand in the shadow of TAPESTRY, which was still fairly high in the charts when this was released.
(TAPESTRY, after all, was the biggest-selling album of all time until SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER came along.) Still, RHYMES AND REASONS is on its own merits a fine album.
Although it had no hits as big as "It's Too Late" or "Where You Lead," the high points on this album are just as artistically satisfying.

 Rhymes & Reasons by John Denver CD
Rhymes & Reasons by John Denver CD Artist
"Rhymes And Reasons", John Denver's first official solo album after leaving the last remnants of the Mitchell Trio (last called "Denver, Boise, & Johnson), marked the start of what was to be a stellar career, altogether cut too short in October, 1997 by an airplane accident.
This first album of John's was truly a preview of coming attractions, although this release, plus the two that followed it, were largely ignored until after "Take Me Home, Country Roads" became his emblematic theme song a couple of years later.

The title song, Rhymes & Reasons, features Paul Prespitino (sp?) on the piano, and his bass line was signature to this recording.
Until a large box set came out, this was the ONLY recording that had that line in it.
If you own a copy of this album, give this track a real good listen and the rest of this great album because it will definitely "clear a cloudy day!" I also purchased the other 2 reissues of JD.
