+++++++++++++++++++++++++
Carl Orff (10 July 1895 – 29 March 1982), though prolific, is largely remembered for his enduringly popular Carmina Burana, and his pedagogical Schulwerk.
Turn, Turn, Turn
In Carmina Burana, which dwarfs
The other achievement of Orff’s,
We learn Fate is vicious,
And Fortune capricious,
As life ineluctably morphs.

Arlo Guthrie (b. 10 July 1947) is a retired American folk singer-songwriter.
Family Matters
The question Arlo asked was should he
Follow in the steps of Woody.
Arlo had that one big hit,
But managed, on the strength of it,
To keep his place upon the stage
Until he reached a ripe old age.
And, all in all, was glad he had
The model of his famous dad.
