Best dedication ever?

To the Beatles,
     to the Airplane and the Spoonful and the Dead,
     to Simon and Garfunkel, Joplin and Hendrix,   
     to Buffalo Springfield and the Rolling Stones,
     to the Doors and the Byrds, the Mamas and the Papas,
     to Melanie, to Donovan, to Peter, Paul, and Mary,
     to the Who, and the Moody Blues, and Moby Grape,
     to Country Joe and the Fish, Paul Revere and the Raiders,
     to Bob Dylan and Phil Ochs and Joan Baez and Joni Mitchell
     to the Mothers of Invention and the Smothers Brothers,
     to the Hollies and the Association and the Beach Boys
         and even Herman and the Hermits,
     to Creedence Clearwater Revival,
     to lost innocence and bright, shining dreams,

and, especially, to Paris:
     looking at you, I hear the music.

The Armageddon Rag
George R. R. Martin
