As the calendar turns
a page anew
A canvas of dreams
washed in hues..

Gratitude arises
with the dawn
A symphony of hope
a melody drawn..

With prayers
as our guiding light
We step into the future
a wondrous sight.

Sorry I have many medical appointments and issues these days... not here much..

Here I took the basic chords of Last Christmas, made it into minor key and waltz style with rubato.. improvised freely, will change every time I play it.. added many trills and scalar motifs like Chopin. Though the chord progression is repeated, this one is actually the hardest of the three to make and record. The other two came easily for unknown reasons. I also started the ideas for Last Christmas and Silent Night (in the style of Chopin) last year. 'Christmas time is here' I made in a couple days this year.

This classical waltz was composed as a token of gratitude to my teacher and in celebration of my fellow students' achievements.
The flute and marimba dance together, supported by the deep tones of the violin and cello.

Dawn of the morning lightly caresses
The moon touch of our hearts reveals 
In the blackest of nights..
In the breathlessness of circumstances 
The embracing hearts slowly heals..
