    It's New Year's Eve 2023 I've just sent this to my son's Facebook he's no longer with us now just like you John. We lost him to Cancer in 2020. This is my favorite John Denver song. My husband and I came home one night and saw our son Matthew watching John Denver on P.B.S. with his then girlfriend. I'll never forget that as long as I live. Because he was always trying to be like his friends and listen to their Music but I always knew my son had a beautiful soul. He moved to Denver Colorado with his girlfriend they stayed together for almost 5 years until she broke it off. It ripped his heart out. He came back home. He had a lot of friends but their lives had moved on. But he was a tough young man. An Artist who's paintings were beautiful. Just like all John Denver's songs. I truly believe that only the good die young. I love you John Denver and I always will. Everytime I hear your songs they always make me cry. I love you too my little Matty Man you were 32 when you left and I was 32 when I had you. I'm thinking of you tonight with the memory of you and that John Denver story. I pray that you are both in Heaven. 😘🤗❤️💙🙏🙏🙏😇😇💕💕

    October 13, 2024 I was blessed to see his statue at Red Rocks, Colorado.. I Sat and cried. Poems, Prayers and Promises has always been my favorite. I want it played at my celebration of life when I am no longer of this world. Thank you, John, for so many memories of your concerts, TV specials and all of your albums filled with special songs. The world was a better place with you in it. Your spirit lives on.

    He never did have a chance to grow old. A great los. But at least we do have his poems, prayers and song. Always missed. Always remembered.

    John Denver helped me grow up. I have loved him since I was 12. This is my favorite song. I was blessed to be able to see him in concert 18 times. It wasn’t enough. I miss him so much still. ❤❤❤

      I was a misfit/loner in highschool (73-77). John Denver was my release from all my dumbass classmates and got me through highschool. I was fortunate to see him live in concert three times. I still listen to his music today and sometimes I find myself tearing up...

    I saw him in a small concert hall, he was absolutely incredible! He gave his band a break and he stayed on stage with just his guitar and sang. I’ll never forget how beautiful it was!

    What I'd give for a time machine to go back and see this man in concert. It's a rare musician who can stand in front of others with nothing but a guitar and their voice and make the evening a memorable occasion for others.
    Thank you John Denver for sharing your light for a short while.

    John Denver was one of those people that was to beautiful for this world! We had him for a short beautiful time, and then he was taken to soon. Thank you John Denver for bringing some beautiful and peaceful music in this troubled world as you passed through in the short time you were here.

      My grandmother made me listen to a John Denver CD when I was 14 or 15 during a 10 hour road trip. This was 9 years ago and i'm incredibly glad she did. On behalf of my generation, thank you for yours.

    This man's songs keep my father's memory alive. Dad was a great guitar player and singer (though he transposed all of Denver's songs to lower keys!), but there isn't a single recording of him playing his old Yamaha or his Takamine 12-string. All there is left is in my heart. John Denver was his all-time favorite, and everything he loved about playing, and what I loved about playing with him, hovers like a beautiful old ghost in all these heavenly, heartfelt tunes.

    After he died I watched a wonderful documentary about him, during which they interviewed a lady who had been on the verge of suicide ... so much so that she had the tablets and the alcohol in front of her and had switched on the radio as she prepared to end her life ... this song came on the radio and gave her reason to live ... how many of us will ever be able to say that the beauty from our own soul saved the life of a person we never knew and would never meet?

    Ive been lately thinking about my life’s time
    All the things I’ve done, how it’s been
    And I can’t help believing in my own mind
    I know I’m gonna hate to see it endI? ve seen a lot of sunshine, slept out in the rain
    Spent a night or two all on my own
    I? ve known my lady? s pleasures, had myself some friends
    And spent a night or two in my own homeI have to say it now, it? s been a good life, all in all
    It? s really fine to have a chance to hang around
    And lie there by the fire and watch the evening tire
    While all my friends and my old lady sit and pass the pipe around
    Talk of poems and prayers and promises and things that we believe in
    How sweet it is to love someone, how right it is to care
    How long it? s been since yesterday and what about tomorrow?
    What about our dreams and all the memories we share?The days they pass so quickly now, nights are seldom long
    Time around me whispers when it? s cold
    The changes somehow frighten me, still I have to smile
    It turns me on to think of growing oldFor though my life? s been good to me there? s still so much to do
    So many things my mind's never known
    I? d like to raise a family, I? d like to sail away
    And dance across the mountains on the moon, yes I wouldI have to say it now, it? s been a good life, all in all
    It? s really fine to have the chance to hang around
    And lie there by the fire and watch the evening tire
    While all my friends and my old lady, sit and watch the sun go down
    Talk of poems and prayers and promises and things that we believe in
    How sweet it is to love someone, how right it is to care
    How long it? s been since yesterday and what about tomorrow?
    What about our dreams and all the memories we share?5
