sing along with me

A song is but a little thing........And yet what joy it is to sing!

Oh how awesome these words are to me
a song is my soul
a song is my being
music is everything
music is like
a tree
the roots of life
for me

oh how I wish
I
could sing
I croak and croon
and
ribbit like a frog
or howl
in the shower
like
a dog
baying at
the
moon

I
never falter
I
never quit
oh
how lucky
your are
you do not
have to listen
to
a croaky old voice
that can never be
silenced

  7. A choir friend of mine once told me that her husband had a wonderful voice - he just tore it up so bad getting it out :)

  9. I'm going to "sing" this to my Gem, for alas, I am entirely lacking in the singing dept, too!Yet, I dare to sing Happy BD to a few very close friends onto their voicemails! This is so clever and nice of you to dedicate to Keith.

  10. Sing Mate Sing! As loud and long as you like, turn the music up loud. I always sound better when I can't hear myself sing.
