Changing To The Key Of C Major it was just a sad lullaby you wished someone else would sing not the kind of song you thought your life would bring by now you thought the tune would sound so clear and so sweet but all the keys you played in crumbled into flats at your feet as the music now starts over a different key of a life’s song the very things that made it weak help to heal and make it strong and the notes don’t have to imitate any music you have ever heard before for some songs that can make you cry can also make your heart soar and no matter how long it takes you eventually do get over the pain and the rhythm of a life returns and that, is the song that remains |

(smiles) This is sooooooo optimistic and lovely, sweet friend, I too always find my favorite songs always cheer me up when I am feeling down, for I love songs that reflect how I believe and feel and who I am and Shakira and Counting Crows especially make me feel happy! (kiss on cheek) This sings like music, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Helen, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you!

h, Certainly, there are songs left to be sung. I seem to be stuck in E-flat myself, but there are those who say that this is the key of the earth. Common ground. Nice write too, Lady . . . e |

helen - have been away for a while, just got back online and wanted to reply to this. I like the poem, the style, and still the way you write words... and no matter how long it takes you eventually do get over the pain and the rhythm of a life returns and that, is the song that remains "if a lifetime is taken and the pain does leave life does return, but slowly but the heart will sing..."
