Your description says it all, as does the title of this piece.  I feel like this every day.  This is such a tender and thoughtful way to express all these thoughts and feelings.  You are leaving a wonderful legacy behind you with every piece you write, Sonni.  Of that you can be quite sure.

a lovely tune.........isn't it wonderful that we have our music to keep us going.........no matter what happens!

A beautiful song Sonni...  so full of life. I appreciate your liner notes too as I am just coming to terms with my age and find like you mentioned I do like life.

Lovely, Sonni - and I know what you're talking about...

I NEED A DRINK OF YOUR LOVE

Love is of the ethereal - not the material world

Ethereal

Live from the attic.
Original song by Eivør

Lyrics:
Come death she said
Come easeful future
Death how I long
For your nurture
Breathe
Breathe into me
Come death only friend
Nothing is born of this pain
Take this gift upon thy self
House of pain
This body is too small a chamber
Breathe
Breathe into me
Breathe
Breathe into me
My true lover is with me
Whatever is true is with me

True Love (live acoustic cover, orig. song by Eivør)

TAFFETA | 84

There are times I feel I am running out of time and I have so much yet to do. I have medical issues that feels like time is chomping at the back of my heels. I've had more time than I was supposed to. So i try to fill every moment of my day with all the  things I do that make up who I am. At the end of my day I am never done. It is a process that is impossible to complete. There will never be a time where I feel I have finished. I can only do as much as I can and hope the effect will be positive for my family as it grows past the scope of having known me alive. Some people fear the unknown and try to stop time and change from happening. Year after year then stays the same except the people in their life age. Working decades upon decade at one job until it becomes who you are - and when that is gone and I ask ,"Who are you?" You don't know.  I know where I was and what I was doing every year of my life, although it is getting harder to pack up and go. I couldn't count all the places I have lived. Someone once asked me if I was afraid to move somewhere I had never been. I laughed and said I must have forgotten to put that on my list. Be afraid of living. Be afraid of taking chances. I love living. It is going by too fast but when you don't let other people's opinion about who you are affect how you live your life then you will have no regrets. Even if you never took out a mortgage on a house because you wanted be free to decide to change your path. Stability was never my goal. Freedom was. But I'm in a wheel chair now. My bones are fragile. I've broken too many. But as long as I have my piano then I will be free tell my story - write my legacy - with music.

One by One 

Words that hit like on anvils
some others as light as feathers 
those that get lost in the haze
words that take me to the moon 

i follow the moves of your mouth
your full lips , colour of plum 
i'm staring at you , i'm listening to you
i drink in  your words 
one by one 

words that we say , in front of our judges
Yes your honor 
i swear it ! 
dreamed words from a pure being
nasties ones, i really don't care

I follow the moves of your mouth 
i'm staring at you , i'm listening to you

i follow the moves of your mouth
your full lips , colour of plum 
i'm staring at you , i'm listening to you
i drink in  your words 
one by one

Rich Man Lyrics

This one is called Rich Man. In our last song, the poor man was trying to get by with limited funds. In this one, our hero is just enjoying life with whatever he can. He's happy just living life.

Lyrics;
I walk in old shoes
Drive on old wheels
Don't have much money
But that's not how I feel
Cause I'm a rich man

I do what I need
And that's getting me by
Got two feet on the ground
And my Head in the sky

I travel lightly
Not much to my name
But I've got all I need
Just the same
I'm a rich man

Wherever I'm at
Is where I want to be
And I'm living my life
Like this world's made for me
I'm a rich man

I have my friends
And my family
They're all the best people
And they're rich just like me


I've traveled the highways
In sunshine and rain
Slept in a boxcar
Of many a train
I've loved and lost
And I still feel the pain
But life is for living
And I can't complain

I don't need a thing
To prove my success
Nobody out there
I need to impress
But I'm a rich man

I do what I need
And that gets me by
Two feet on the ground
My head in the sky

I might walk in old shoes
and drive on old wheels
Not much money
But that's not how I feel
Cause I'm a rich man

I'm a rich man
a rich man
a rich man ...

Rich Man

Memories of June

Recalling some tequila, love words and more with them in that Ibiza bar, I wondered: “What if Pink Floyd met the spirit of Camarón de la Isla… in my bedroom?” I used lots of guitars, basses, etc. on a 12/8 beat, to enclose 3/4, 6/4 & 8/8 rhythms along.

Letra / Translated Lyrics: EL POZO DE TU AMOR  /  THE WELL OF YOUR LOVE

Fui a abrir el grifo, estaba sediento,  /  I turned on the tap, I was thirsty,
fui a abrir el grifo de tu amor.  /  I turned on the tap of your love.
Fui a abrir el grifo, necesitaba hacerlo,  /  I turned on the tap, I needed to do it,
fui a abrir el grifo de tu amor.  /  I turned on the tap of your love.
Necesitaba un trago de tu amor,  /  I needed a drink of your love,
necesitaba el grifo de tu amor.  /  I needed the trap of your love.

Fui a bajar al pozo, me estaba muriendo,  /  I was going into the well, I was dying,
fui a bajar al pozo de tu amor.  /  I was going into the well of your love.
Fui a bajar al pozo, y me caí dentro,  /  I was going into the well, and fell inside,
fui a bajar al pozo de tu amor.  /  I was going into the well of your love.
Necesitaba un trago de tu amor,  /  I needed a drink of your love,
necesitaba el pozo de tu amor.  /  I needed the well of your love.

Por bajar al pozo, yo me caí dentro  /  Because of going into the well, I fell inside
y no quiero que nadie llore por mis lamentos  /  and I don’t want anybody to cry for my laments

Caí… por ti.  /  I fell … for you.
Caí… caí… caí por ti.  /  I fell … fell … fell for you.
Caí… a tu pozo, caí por ti.  /  I fell … into your well, fell for you.
Caí… caí… caí… caí a tu pozo por ti.  /  I fell … fell … fell … fell into your well for you.
Caí.  /  I fell.

Me he caído al pozo, y ahora que estoy dentro  /  I have fallen into the well, and now I’m inside
veo que se ha secado nuestro amor.  /  I see our love has dried up.
Vine a beber al pozo, pero el pozo está seco,  /  I came to drink at the well, but the well is dry,
veo que se ha secado nuestro amor.  /  I see our love has dried up.
Necesitaba un trago de tu amor,  /  I needed a drink of your love,
necesitaba el pozo de tu amor.  /  I needed the well of your love.

El pozo de tu amor (Caí por ti)

My music pieces are all piano improvisations expressing emotions. It is music telling stories without the words. In my earIy years I sang and played piano in piano bars or fronted bands of different styles, from country to heavy metal and to 40. I've been composing, teaching and performing most of my life.  I'm getting old(er) now 😔 but the great thing about creating music is it gets better the longer you play, and you have more to write about! 

This is what I leave of me to my generations to come who wonder where their desire to make music comes from. My mother, grandmother and great grandmother were both accomplished pianists when they were young. My son is also exceptional.  My great grandmother and gr grandfather sang and danced in minstrel shows (vaudeville) in the early 1900's. Kids today have no idea what life was like before moving pictures.  I now have great-grandchildren. They will know who I am through my music. When I am gone my music will still be here. What a wonderful thought!
