„Schwarze Rose“ (18.01.2025)

Mancher Moment kann ein dorniger, zarter, durchdringender Schmerz sein.
Für mich symbolisiert das die „Schwarze Rose“ 
Ein feiner, blütenhafter Trauerflor.

Schwarze Rose, zarte dunkle Blüte die mein Herz zerspringen lässt.
Je mehr ich Dich betrachte, so tief blickst Du in mein betrübtes Herz. 

Dieses Stück ist für zarte, traurige und gefühlvolle Momente.

Vielen Dank für Eure geschätzte Aufmerksamkeit.

"Black Rose" (January 18, 2025)

Some moments can be a thorny, tender, piercing pain.
For me, this symbolizes the "Black Rose"
A fine, flower-like mourning ribbon.

Black rose, delicate dark blossom that makes my heart burst.
The more I look at you, the more deeply you look into my sad heart.

This piece is for tender, sad and emotional moments.

Thank you for your valued attention.

The survival of earth is in our hands for now and future generations.  We have been given life on this planet and everything we need to survive.  Bless the ground we walk on, the sun and universe, the air we breath and all living things... animal, mineral, and vegetable.  Be grateful to everyone who is fighting the fight to save our planet... and above all, promise to do one thing each day, however small it is, to make a difference!

Ode to Earth

I wrote this a couple of days ago and worked on the lyrics a bit then recorded just now on my phone. The starting point was thinking of a Syd Barrett lyric which mirrored Elvis "I don't care if the sun don't shine".

Yes I mind when the sun won't shine
And I must live in shadow
When the dry spell comes must carry on 
Until there's no tomorrow
Getting up I know I'll fall again
And when I'm not wanted at all 
By the grace of God I don't despair
But for goodness sake of course I care

You bet it's true and I get the blues
Whilst you suffer for nothing 
As I play kick back watch melting wax 
Then I'm late again rushing 
Falling down I know I'll rise again 
And while I'm hated I stand tall 
Had to accept life isn't fair 
But for goodness sake of course I care
For goodness sake of course I care 








 





Of Course I Care

a fairy tale

Innamoramento

I originally confused this piece with another. Resulting in a change from the original title for which I contritely apologise. I took the piece down before being persuaded by my wife Helen to put it back.
