For those of you who endured even a few seconds of my Knock On Wood Knock Off – my apologies. You may notice how that song was recently taken off the blog, only to be replaced by this pleasant piano musing.
I call it Morning Walk. It’s a first draft. And there are things to improve with this, for sure. I need to work on varying the rhythm track. I’ve been writing out the sections, so I can go back and re-record some of the parts that are a little rough.
What suggestions do you have? Words? An additional melody line?
Look forward to hearing your thoughts.

This is a great melody! These words came to me, I think the finished product could be slower, and country, maybe even with that weird country music phrasing. Maybe not steel guitar country, but definitely fiddle/guitar country. I’d love to make it bluegrass, but I don’t think it’d make that much of a transition.
Gotta be a guy singing. (Even though men die first……hmmm.) OK, this is a gruesome song about death now. Well, I am SUPPOSED to be reading the Bhagavad Gita for my guru, and I’m procrastinating….so thanks!
Can you hear the natural lyrical breaks? I don’t know how to write them.
On and on
it goes
through time
and pain
and joyYou and me
in the summertime
walking fast
through fields
down paths
green grovesOn and on it goes
through time
and pain
and joyYou and me
in the wintertime
slipping now
on brittle ice
sparkling snow
and aching bonesOn and on
it goes
through time
and pain
and joyYou and me
creeping through the dark
losing grasp
of familiar hands
moving out
of sightOn and on it goes
through time and pain and joy
e -ter-nity
a new path to see
With me…
