Dear Cedar's Bloom,

I thought nothing could encapsulate passion. For me it's always been a fleeting intensity, entering and leaving at whim. But then I came to know a group of guys who were all musically inclined. Through the fire of a lasting passion and devoted conviction, they've become a stupendous musical success. Too soon my friends will have left Saskatoon; again I feel a familiar ache as close friends relinquish their transient place in my everday life. I love you, Cedar's Bloom.
