Yes, so the song poem,

"At Home, Blinds Open, Shadowy Love," is about 
learning to love the bitter taste in coffee.

I love French Fries from McDonald's,
and I'm learning to eat them with love.

My dear friend bought me French ​​Crêpes,
and I didn't feel like an airplane,
and we went many places together,
and we felt love, like shadowy love.

​

Coco Chanel helped invent Tweed Couture,

but I'm thinking more like dance-enabling

sailing skirts and blouses,

with lightweight sailing jackets,

and I saw this with Coco too.

​

Coco Chanel, isn't her name lovely?

She lived in Dallas during her later life,

and after the war in Europe in the 1930s and 1940s,

she helped Winston Churchill draw landscapes

and trees, and let there be peace always.

​

Impressionism is about natural light,

and about seeing brushstrokes awn paper.

Post-impressionism reminds me of opera,

and the visual experience is about

geometric and emotional realities.

​

​The Dallas Museum of Art

has been the loverly home,

of the Wendy and Emery Reves Collection,

since 1985. This collection includes artwork of Impressionism, Post-Impressionism, and

decorative art. 

 

The little villa home in southern France,

where the Reves familia assembled their collection, was originally owned by Coco Chanel,

and the original furnishings, books, and décor

of Chanel are now part of this art collection. 

​

This exhibit is now being renovated,

and we hope it will re-open this year, in 2026.

Thank God, the rainstorm did not damage

the beautiful furnishings and artwork.
