You’ve been thinking about those good old days when the future was a blank slate
And all those choices that you made that got you to this current state
If you could go back in time and give yourself some advice
Instead of choosing the safe path, maybe you should have rolled the dice

Time can pass so quickly
But in the moment, it feels slow
And then one day you ask yourself
Where did all that time go
You can dip your toes in the water 
And slowly easy your body in
Or you can walk up to the edge 
And jump in and swim

Those were your salad days but now your lettuce is wilted
You lost your mojo somewhere along the way
You tell yourself you can’t go back you’re goanna keep on marching forward
And somehow, it’s all goanna turn out okay

You can go through life agitated and tightly wound
You can live your life like a dog trapped in a pound
You can wake up every morning and do the same thing you did the day before
Or you can look at yourself in the mirror and say you’re not goanna take it anymore

You’re heading down the road towards an unpleasant destination
And you’re searching for a way to change your situation
You can dip your toes in the water and slowly easy your body in
Or you can walk up to the edge and  jump in and swim

Those were your salad days but now your lettuce is wilted
You lost your mojo somewhere along the way
You tell yourself you can’t go back you’re goanna keep on marching forward
And somehow, it’s all goanna turn out okay
Those were your salad days but now your lettuce is wilted
You lost your mojo somewhere along the way
You tell yourself you can’t go back you’re goanna keep on marching forward
And somehow, it’s all goanna turn out okay
Here’s hoping  that tomorrow’s goanna be a better day.

My parents listened to Franz Liszt - I still have the original record so I ended up a fan.  My music teacher was the late: Anatoly Miroshnyk (born August 19, 1923 - died July 14, 2011) was a Ukrainian composer, pianist, teacher, musician and public figure.

We often think of talented musicians as folks who start young and advance their skills via the finest education available to them. While this is certainly true in some cases, there are plenty who realised many of their artistic capacities without the aid of specialised instruction or a degree in music.

Where words leave off, music begins.. Not everyone has the ability to compose music I also sing Jazz & Blues with musicians on Wikiloops a truly amazing community.

 I've always been passionate about music composition and fortunately the internet & technology made it possible to build a community in the clouds.

Find my global music journey since 2012 below:

I've been tested by an examiner from the Australian Conservatorium of Music & apparently I have perfect pitch and blessed with the ability to accompany any musician, add hooks to any genre - as a singer I’m not great but who cares thats why most is spoken word.

I have my own style - either you like it or not -  always open for collaborations

🎤I have no fear of perfection - will never reach it 🎧   I don’t have the perfect voice nor am I aiming to be the best I'm only human with a passion for what I love music is in my heart.

Thank you to all who believe in me and MOST OF ALL my amazing Mentor thank you Sir for encouraging me to NEVER GIVE UP it all takes time and practice.

My mixing & mastering techniques have been learned from Youtube tutorials & experimenting with Logic Pro X.   I love the creativity and flexibility music production - a continual learning journey  of #passion #persistence #perspiration #patience
 
Having begun her musical journey at the young age of five with the piano accordion – an instrument initially more of an expectation than a choice, yet one for which she now holds deep gratitude – Heidi-Marie eventually transitioned into the captivating world of electronic music production a few years ago. This discovery led to the gentle retirement of her accordion, making space for her true passion: composing, producing, and sharing her sonic creations with the world. For Heidi-Marie, music is not just a pastime but a lifelong dedication, a constant until her final days.

I am drawn to folk, blues, soft rock, and country music, new and old. I love songs that tell a story, especially the Irish, English, and Scottish ballads of long ago because their stories are often timeless, and most everyone at any time can relate to. 
 
I also am a pastel painter and find being able to express universal emotions through my art, as well as writing lyrics and putting them to music that I can sing and play on my guitar or ukelele so rewarding and comforting.

Memories of people, places, and events throughout my life influence the songs I write.





the hardest out of Houston, Texas I was born with cerebral palsy. I feel like no one has a story like my May 2025 be my year. My disability is what gave me this ability?
