Dear Ones,
It is our regret to inform you that the concerts this weekend have to be postponed. Marcin, the violin player, got stuck in Memphis, TN due to snowstorms. Our apologies for any inconvenience.
We are still looking forward to sharing this program of world music with you and are planning to reschedule the shows in May but do not have a date set at this point.
We are happy to switch your tickets over the April 18th concert or refund the ticket price – please contact the Blue Sage – 970-527-4273.
We are practicing grace in the face of surrender and looking towards the next events. Thank you for your support as we navigate the unexpected.
blessings,
Arlyn and David

All Rivers at Once – Rumi
Don’t unstring the bow,
I am your four-feathered arrow
that has not been used yet.
I am a strong knifeblade word,
not some if or maybe,
dissolving in air.
I am sunlight slicing the dark.
Who made this night?
A forge deep in the earth-mud.
What is the body?
Endurance.
What is love?
Gratitude.
What is hidden
in our chests?
Laughter.
What else?
Compassion.
