the red one - to play the acoustic version of
Christmas in My Soul by Laura Nyro

Christmas And The Beads Of Sweat
Come young braves
Come young children
Come to the book of love with me
Respect your brothers and your sisters
Come to the book of love
I know it ain't easy
But we're gonna look for a better day
Come young braves
Come young children.

I love my country as it dies
In war and pain before my eyes
I walk the streets where disrespect has been
The sins of politics, the politics of sin
The heartlessness that darkens my soul
On Christmas.

Red and silver on the leaves
Fallen white snow runs softly through the trees
Madonnas weep for wars of hell
They blow out the candles and haunt Noel
The missing love that rings through the work
On Christmas.

Black panther brothers bound in jail
Chicago seven and the justice scale
Homeless Indian on Manhattan Isle
All God's sons have gone to trial
And all God's love is out of style
On Christmas.

Christmas in my soul
Christmas in my soul
Christmas in my soul.

That looks like bluestone -- if so there is no need to seal it. The old sidewalks in Brooklyn are paved with it and it was probably quarried in the Catskills. Try corsican mint in between the stones. It looks like moss, it doesn't grow rangy like most other mint and when you step on it, it smells heavenly. The only thing you need to do is to water it.

People who "age" clay pots and brick use a diluted buttermilk spray to encourage moss growth. Moss may be harder to grow on impacted soil between the stones, but creeping thyme will take over.
