lyrics:
i woke up this morning,
and wanted to go back up for breath.
intoxicated epiphanies, late nights, then lonely bed.
regurgitation of all the day's long hard thoughts.
then comforting silence in not having to think…

This is a re-do of the piano groove track from July 8. I've added a breakdown and a B part and for the most part, I'm pleased.

They built a boat
Carried you down to the riverside
Set it alight
Talked of regret, children played nearby
They played nearby
The image of you I can’t shake
Hand raised, parting ways in the rearview
Smoke from the…

This full moon. Loving respect, kindness, and a great spiritual power came up in one of my readings this morning. I'm grateful for that being present.

I’m a shadow in the evening light
Fading slow into the night
Will my name echo through the breeze
Or vanish like whispers in the trees
Will you still remember me when I fade
When the colors of my face begin to shade
Am I a story that time…

On my way home
By that lonesome graveyard
A ghost jumps up and says
Come here won't you be my man
Wasn't a ghost at all
Someone asking for a ride
Wasn't a ghost at all
Someone asking for a home
Said boy come here
And take me to your…

Subtle change of gray light
Heart breaks in sync with the sky
As it cries over open fields and tall stands of pines, their delight
No weight to the world they rejoice
Heavy lids, can't sleep
Head like a hornet nest, a buzz with bees…

I saw jack-in-the-pulpit and I knew I belonged
And I felt every sermon and I held every song
O The trees creaked and shifted as they turned and dropped their leaves
And I pulled an empty bottle and I held it to the breeze.
Oh this one life…

This is yesterday's track, back to the original melody with cross-picked guitar added (oy! that was tough). I see the template for a proper song now, and over the coming days I'll add to this and I hope to end up with something...

Worries Never Win
Verse 1:
Worries have never solved
The things that ache my heart.
Pacing the midnight floors,
Only pulled me apart.
Tried to fix it all alone—
But I was sinking fast.
Then I heard a still, small voice:
“Child, this…

Last of the five-day experiment in intervals. Again, my friend Ebow was acting persnickety, as is its wont (I'm sure I have nothing to do with it), and the result includes some abrasive string rattling. I like the melody of the original recording…

I AM Alone
Chorus:
Eternal Father, King of glory,
Ever reigning from above!
Forgive me, Lord, I once was blind,
That I dared speak their names with Yours.
You are I AM—the fire, the storm,
The Shepherd, Lion, and the Dove.

Dian, you say the sun is going down

Lyrics:
Another morning
Such sorry days
Long hours working

Oh watch out

Down in the blue where the coral trees sway,
Lived a seahorse unicorn, sparkling all day.
With a tail like a comet and a horn made of light,
She glowed like a dream in the soft ocean night.
She swam through the sea with a smile on her face…
