KEN KLEINFELD

A Song for Jacques Barzun


© 2008 Ken Kleinfeld

Waterman

Jacques Barzun
Has tied in some
Waterman gateways
To help mind make for someone.

Boy in France
Then World War I
Dammed that hamlet stream
Of fertile generation.

Soon New York
Took on Barzun,
The head gardener
To a broad way that plays on.

Boy in France
Then World War I . . .

Jacques Barzun
Has tied in tons,
Waterman gateways
To direct mind to the fun.


Ken Kleinfeld is a singer/songwriter. Waterman and another Barzun-inspired song, Isn't Abbey Strange, are on his forthcoming album.
