Melody of my heart, song of my life
   the wind brings your music to me
blowing through the branches of
   my faded memories
Whispering through the pictuers
   in my mind
Recalling all the treasures
   of a forgotten past
And the loves that I leave
   behind
Melody of my heart sing
   your song so sweet
Sing my life through the
   windows of time
Let each note recreate a
   cherished moment
A fragment of verse echoing
   endlessly
Held in the heart for
   a cold winters day
Song of my life let
   there be no regrets
Let there never be songs
   left unsung.


never say never

Paula wonderful response to the challenge.

why must we pray
screaming? why must not death be redefined? we shut our eyes we stretch out our arms and whirl on a pane of glass-patti smith

Just beautiful Paula. . .

"Song of my life let
   there be no regrets
Let there never be songs
   left unsung."

And let there never be melodies never left unheard. . .

Superb!!
