What a terrific song, Bev. It has such an upbeat tempo. I love the refrain, God sends us messages and reassurances in so many ways, even a stranger's smile. I like the way the mood shifted between verses and refrain, we may face hardships and have a difficult journey, but God will find a way to help us through. Linda

Bev,
your spiritual verse is extremely well written. Your song has an excellent rhythm and chorus. The art work is wicked cool. I love how spirituality flows down the page as I sung your poem in my head. Great job using assonance, cadence and alliteration in your lyrical verse. I enjoyed your lines; "So, pierce my heart the way I pierce yours and drop me to my knees. But most of all watch for me as I stumble through dead dreams." I could hear a blues kind of sound and I could imagine Joss Stone or even Adele singing this song, but they write their own generally. I love your metaphors: "Let your blessin' rain down the chokin' weeds, send a sigh, note that's sung and whisper at the bottom of a wind." I loved your poem. I'd recommend your poem that nourishes the readers mind. Keep on writing with heart and do more lyrical poetry, my friend. Please have a blessed day.
Melissa.

This is definitely a winner, Makes me glad I decided to become a fan. The image of the stranger's smile was so powerful and makes a beautiful refrain. You references to the cages full of men, women who drowned their babies, and the old man, dying, praying were great. Hope you know someone who can do it justice as a song. Best regards, judi

Bev!!! Wow okay this was amazing. Your refrain is so wonderful and musical in a really special way. Can't the action of one person make your whole day? Outside the refrain the poetry is very intriguing to me, I love the depth of thought in this and really makes me pause and have to ponder it. It's so intellectual that I'm going to be thinking about this for awhile to understand it as you want it to be. Remember I'm slow. Tell me more about it when you have time. Gosh I'd love to hear it set to music. SUPER AND NEW FOR YOU-TOO COOL you talented woman. XO Vicki

In reading this song, I would be curious about the melody. I would definitely want to listen to it. It seems quite unusual.

Thanks for sharing this. JW

    Hi, JW. One little problem with this is that I don't read music all that well. Just like to sing!! A few folks have had some ideas about key...so maybe I will be able to tap into some help 'out there'. This has been an interesting diversion for me and has opened a new direction. Thanks so much for your support and generosity. Kind regards, Bev

"Let the guy behind me smilin'
be my angel for today
and the sunlight streamin'
send the demons far away"

Extraordinary, my friend! If this is your first attempt at song writing, maybe you should consider taking it seriously! Hugs, Jack xxxxxx

Hey, there, Bev! Wow - a song. I LOVE it. And I really love what inspired it. Just shows what a simple smile can do for someone. That refrain is great - now you just need to put the thing to music.
