Back around 2001, I played around with Sound Recorder on my Windows 98 SE desktop PC it allowed you change and add reverb to what you recorded. The result was this rendition I did of "Dream A Little Dream"

This is one of my favourite poems written by Bill Fries otherwise known as CW McCall of "Convoy" song fame. I discovered it on the back of Mannheim Steamroller's Fresh Aire I album back in the late 80's. Been in love with it ever since.

SHORES OF THE SWILLY

Poem that I wrote in late March of 2010. Poem is below -

~ FOOLISH AND NAIVE ~

One day came calling the visitors Foolish and Naive
Without any warning came the tug at Heart's sleeve
They neoned brightly catching Heart in their clasp
Heart sank to the floor with a surprised gasp..

Foolish spoke first chiding Heart for letting him in
For being taken for a ride on his sweet silly grin.
Then Naive chimed in on Heart for being so blind
Getting Heart in such a pickled fix and tight bind..

On and on it went with Heart spinning around the word happily......
While Thoughts raced to roadblock tears that sprang so suddenly..

Such was the attack from Foolish and Naive
That Soul got involved and could not wake Believe
Soul searched Heart right back to beginning to the very start.
In their journey found Kindred Spirit asleep unaware of his part.

They awoke Kindred Spirit who said simmer down and don't ya'll worry
While the Mind applied a compress to Heart's wound in a hurry
Heart was weak from all the poking and pounding
As Mind scoffed and scolded with a right proper sounding!

Truth and Understanding sat quietly in the waiting room
Prepared to gather up all Doubt and Fear with dustpan and broom
Kindred Spirit poked at Soul and said tell Heart to give us a chance
Have we not been walking and talking together all along on this path of romance?
