Knowing the JMDL listers ability to be creative and humorous,I sat eagerly awaiting a sparky chorus of 'Both Birds Now' or even a few verses,but it was not to be.The post fell flat,which only goes to show the ancient adage that you win some,you lose some. That,dearest Betsy, is the full story. :) Anita x On 10 Feb 2012, at 22:26, Betsy Blue wrote: > Anita, what's the story behind this? > > On Feb 8, 2012, at 10:36 AM, Anita G wrote: > >> I have only managed to find one verse Joni completed of 'Both Birds Now', but maybe others close to Joni may have more.
