I heard that Miss Loretta passed today. I grew up with her music, and my family on both sides grew up near where she lived. I was so happy to take my mother to see her a few summers ago. What an inspiration! To make it in country music in a time when women weren’t a part of the scene, especially women from the Appalachia. It’s nice to know tonight her spirit’s truly free. If you’re a fan, I invite you pen some brevity inspired by her life (50 words or less) or music.
Happy Tuesday!
I’m lazy.
I’ll wait for gravity.
A darkening leaf on a poplar tree.
I wanna be free,
but I’m patient for my release.

I never got to hear her music, though I knew her name; love her ‘Coal Miner’s Daughter’ ; another good one bites the dust 😦 we seem to have lost so many this year —
