Sauver la face du monde

Sauver la face du Monde

The forest breathes in whispers,
its voice carried on the night wind.
Beneath the silver glow of the moon,
the trees stretch their shadows,
dancing softly on the earth.

A stream murmurs in the distance,
its waters flowing endlessly,
carving a story older than time,
a tale of life that flows and fades.

The leaves quiver,
caught between stillness and motion,
their fragile forms trembling in the moonlight.
Each drop of dew holds the universe,
a fleeting mirror of infinite beauty.

Beneath this canopy of stars and leaves,
a solitary figure walks,
their footsteps swallowed by the soil,
their breath merging with the cool, damp air.

The forest listens,
its silence alive with a timeless rhythm,
bearing witness to the brief spark of life,
a moment suspended in the vast embrace of eternity.

And as the moon climbs higher,
its light weaves through the branches,
illuminating the truth whispered by the trees:
beauty is fleeting,
but its echoes remain,
woven into the eternal fabric of the forest.

The figure pauses,
their gaze lifted to the sky.
In this moment, they are not apart,
but one with the forest,
their presence a flicker in its endless tale.

AFFE TOT

Between writing sermons as a small-town pastor, I was also engaged in writing songs, some you have heard in my "Scenes of St. Francis". This particular song came to me after reading an article about love and marriage--ministers do a lot of reading for sermon preparation--but this one knocked me a bit sideways.  Turns out men on average will fall in love between five and seven times before meeting their wife, and then 1-1/2 times afterward!  This song is about the 1-1/2 times afterward, a little different kind of love song for Valentine's Day. 
I have sat on the text and melody for over forty years but thought I better do something before time overtook it as it had overtaken my singing voice.  I heard Axel sing in his magnificent song with Sarah Paradise-Brown "What We Still Feel" and felt he could give the song the vocal it needed, an international voice of "everyman".  When he received the guitar parts he set to work on it and gave the song a stunningly beautiful orchestral setting as well.  Thank you dear Axel for lavishing your vocal and orchestral skills on a song that needed both. I am deeply honored and indebted.  Hear more of Axel's beautiful music @axel-m-501052973.
"Faithful and True" lyrics:

I recall the day I said "I do",
I never thought that I could love anyone
Like I love you,
But of late I'm really not so sure
That the promises we made can hold
Us together as we both grow older
With each day.
Is it possible for love to endure?
Chorus:
But I've made up my mind.
I've made my choice,
This feeling will pass but never the voice,
That tells me I must remain,
Faithful and true.

Bridge:
It doesn't stop the pain of admitting what can never be,
But if love has any meaning it is found in trust,
And not in what we feel.

Instrumental break...

Repeat bridge:

There's a sadness as I say farewell
To a love that promised more than I could ever tell,
Or at least that is the way it seemed
To a man who found himself in love
With another 'till he counted the cost of fantasy.
It was more than he ever dreamed.

Repeat chorus and end.

Faithful And True (David Dunham with Axel Menningen)

There are stars in the Southern sky
Southward as you go
There is moonlight and moss in the trees
Down the Seven Bridges Road

Now I have loved you like a baby
Like some lonesome child
And I have loved you in a tame way
And I have loved you wild

Sometimes there’s a part of me
Has to turn from here and go
Running like a child from these warm stars
Down the Seven Bridges Road

There are stars in the Southern sky
And if ever you decide you should go
There is a taste of time-sweetened honey
Down the Seven Bridges Road

Another Love Song

sound to send

Vedran - One Second

Lyrics: 
when I sleep  
nothing fades
all the lights
shine away

every heart beats for you
every part was meant for you 
and I can’t breath

oh aint it a mystery   
every thing was here before

oh aint it a mystery
every thing was here before

when I hide
amongst the evergreens
oh how I high 
I climb

amongst the trees
all is told to me
nothing’s free
except the breeze

oh aint it a mystery
every thing was here before

oh aint it a mystery
it was always here before

each time I wake
I see the same mistakes
purple walls 
Keep closing in
another day
another soul to find
I broke my mirror
it brought me peace now I can breath 

oh aint it a mystery
it was always here before

Mystery

Funny how often it happens.  

The (always rather uncomfortable) global status quo is disrupted as a stone of change plops into the pond of life, and from the ripples in the political ecosystem, tensions rise, international welcome mats are quietly pulled in and the nationalistic tub-thumping begins, always led by those with least to lose.   The language of politics shifts from the diplomatic to the pugilistic, and before you know where you are "leaders" keen to ride the opportunistic wave start eyeing up tracts of land, peoples and resources that don’t belong to them.  Bizarre, sham alliances are enacted to justify or enable ridiculously short term lunatic, greed-driven objectives, and eventually, even sensible folk start changing the way they behave - puffed out chests, strange salutes, - and ultimately start changing the way they dress and appear in public - comedic logo'd hats, odd moustaches,  funny trousers, armbands and the like.  Ah, probably just a European thing…

Anyhoo - only one way to counter the playground bully, and that is to laugh at him.  So I thought I’d quickly murder this lovely old 1927 classic of Frank Stokes and Dan Sane “Mr Crump Don’t Like It”.  I know they won’t mind.  (Especially the marvelously named Mr. Sane…..)

Check out the fabulous original here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g326DgRahxc

Pick up the guitar tab from Steve James' brilliant "Fingerstyle Blue Songbook"

As a great human being once sang, "When will we ever learn?  When will we ever learn?"

Thanks for dropping by: go peacefully, and with an inner smile.

Mr. Trump Don’t Like It

Mr. Trump don’t like it, he won’t have it here.
Mr. Trump don’t like it, he won’t have it here..…no sir…
Mr. Trump don’t like it, won’t have it here,
Got a bee in his bonnet ‘bout Volodymyr
Mr. Trump don’t like it, he won’t have it here…..maybe Greenland….

Well he loves his tariffs, fair trade such a pain
Well he loves his tariffs, fair trade such a pain… likes to deal…
But he won’t make America great again 
By beating up innocent sweet Ukraine
Ah he loves his tariffs, fair trade such a pain.…. Here come da boys…..

He’s coming down on Europe, loves his new pal Vlad…hey - what’s not to like?
He’s coming down on Europe, loves his new pal Vlad
He’s coming down on Europe, loves his new pal Vlad
The only true love he ever had
He’s coming down on Europe, loves his new pal Vlad….ah, such lovely couple….

The Sign

First of all thanks for dropping in on my page.
I sing, write songs and play rhythm guitar. I'm trying to learn a bit of bass. People tell me I've got a reasonable voice and I have a liking for melody. As I make my way with multi-track home recording, I'm hoping the the end result will be greater than the sum of the parts!
So again, thanks for dropping by. Hopefully you will take a listen to some of my songs and if you like what you hear, it would be great if you could leave a comment.
