An idea that was originaly conceived as a potential blog article which has still yet to reach fruition. However, I decided to go the poetry route first of all as a way of finding references to the Event's themes of the time. You'll notice that the first letter of every first line of each stanza spells out a word or reference (reading vertically), and the first word of verses 3, 4 and 6 all link to form a message. Hope you like "WOODSTOCK"

Love, and

Sanctuary -

Destination!

 

Winding its road upon the stage

Everyone walkin' those paces

Every musician has come to town

Destined to rock in high places

 

SHOUT!

People all about

Earth's core in human doses

Everyman's tales of yore

Destiny beckons its aces

 

PEACE!

Echoing larger than spaces

A clockwork orange of time

Crowing to human embraces

Expansion of minds and of races.

 

Lit are the candles of love

Open are the skies up above

Venting the raindrops in mud

Enlightening like music in blood

 

MORE!

Up in the rafters it echoes

Shouts and screams and applause

Igniting the sonnets and fellows

Credence of peace and of cause.
