Hi Colleen, I’m happy that you’re still making music!

oh this is so pretty! Beautiful melody and I love the simplicity of just voice and instrument. Great to come back and find your music again :)

Just noticed I hadn't actually sent the comment I was typing when I listened the other day!! Anyway, loved this :) Had no idea I was about to start posting again myself!

Very good, BTW keep warm ....

Love the lyrics! and your voice is as sweet as ever. Great work Colleen.

Ohhhhhh ... another masterpiece. Great imagery creating visual pictures in my mind all the way through. Excellent start to a new year of songwriting!

Love it - are you on Facebook or any social media

Very nice.

Another listen this morning. Good Stuff

beautiful

A beautiful gem of a song Colleen

Beautiful song! Another Dillon classic

Love the lyrics, and your vocals are right on...great job Colleen!!

Sweet melancholy, really good song.

sad but true!

Oh how poignant! Wonderful vocals too.

I stopped by for another listen! Magnificent!

Great lyrics

The sad and simple tune set a beautiful tone for the more complicated poetry: “…But it’s beating still whole” is such a powerful line. It underscores the strength and courage that I admire in the piece and its creator. Brava!

Touching song. Profoundly beautiful.

And May all your wishes come true indeed. Love this tune!!!

The very best! Sorry I got distracted…. MN coffee on its way this morning

Funny I don’t get stalker vibes but I can see if one knew the backstory that might be the outcome. Another great piece of writing!!

One of the best songs ever!!!! Fabulous!!!!!

You've been a writer / poet for so many years!!! How delightful to put these songs out. I'm glad you found the shoe box.

Thanks for this one Roger.... I'm so sad every day that we live in another era that repeats the same old sins of history. When will humans learn that we can all share and everyone will have enough?

that harp is just the ticket indeed! matches the laidback vibe and your mellow vocals. Great one!!

RIP to your pretty one....!!

Love this song! Congratulations - what an accomplishment. I can imagine your fingers are a bit sore and your voice is craving a cold libation. But very glad you shared these with all of us.

Wow!!!! Congratulations. All 14 songs were amazing. And this one - quite the pinnacle moment itself. Gut wrenching in parts... especially the chorus. Your writing is always an inspiration to me, and this one certainly has done that job.

Holy zither batman!!! I love the island vibes I'm getting on this one... Feel like there was some dancing on your balcony too...

Another inspired lyric! I am imagining this fabulous batch of songs is a heart spawned tribute to those you love here and in the great beyond. Fantastic song.

Good one indeed! Hope it’s fictional and all is okay in the real world

This is really poignant. Such heartfelt storytelling. I feel like it should be the soundtrack to a Ken Burns movie. Just excellent all around! Instant fav!,!

So filled with emotion and longing... amazing!

This is one of my favorites ever!!!! The tension builds as though she's really had quite the trip indeed.... What really happened on the pier... Excellent!!!!!

Very inspiring lyrics! I can hear all the anthem-esque background arrangements. Love this one!

Just beautiful!!!!

Exceptional lyrics!!! Love this arrangement- spare and supportive of your raspy warm vocals

Really like the vibe and your vocals are so lovely.
