Name: Point Of Entry - Guitar Prelude by Deva Vani
Duration: 2 min 4 s
Description: Using Jaimie's hypnotic guitar prelude, I added vocals as I heard them in "between the strings". Improvising and listening...flowing with the gorgeous string drone of plucked chords. What a playground for the voice!

Listening to One Sound to become a Melody

Birth Of A Melody

This is still in progress.  This is a song I wrote several years ago but never recorded, and I wanted to use it to explore an assignment about melody......
I discovered a counter melody? and the harp finds other melodies as well, as it played with the interludes.... 
I am still exploring, but here is this, as is, now.

There's a sound between the layers of holy,
humming this world together and apart.
Winding into every silence
Finding its way deep into my heart

I'm resting within the air,
feet on the ground
Soft presence of light, like a sound,
moving inside and around me

There's a sound.....

I don't need to know anything
in this place between stillness and motion,
where the harbor is woven of golden floss
constantly spun from the ocean

There's a sound......

Layers Of Holy - In Progress

Laurence Cole, words by Rumi as translated by Coleman Barks. Arranged for guitar with permission by Lisa G. Littlebird.

Don't Go Back To Sleep

Layer song for community singing...to dwell in and play with!

Lyrics:

Sun, sun, sun rising! For any reason, rising'!
Sun, sun, sun rising'! For any reason, risin' in me...

Spark in the under, Spark in the under, 
Feel the heat in the under, I feel a light shining....

Way down in the deep, Ever underneath,
Safe inside cupped hands, Never gone to sleep...

Sun, Rising For Any Reason By Lia Falls
