Heard Pony Man for the 1st time in years. Anyone know the inspiration for it?
Also what's the title of thr song that starts out with Sunset Lavender or has that peace in the song?

I guess as it is aimed at children the inspiration came from his own kids
I don't know about 'sunset"
I do know of a Lightfoot song aboat sundown which is close, So are you sure aboat "sunset"??
If not you just might be mishearing
"If you’d like to spend the afternoon approaching lavender"
Just a piece of that peaceful song
