With a steaming mug of hot Irish tea in my cogitative corner it is understanding I seek.
Lullabies are LOVE DREAMIN’ IN LOVE, of course y’all know this.
My eclectic music library includes hundreds of artists representing most known genres, on vinyl, tapes, CD’s etc., though not on 8-tracks because I sent all those to the dumps. Some of these much-loved old friends will have gathered dust by the time I finally revisit them.
Lullabies are more than soothing dreamy melodies, there’s a simple honest beauty about these precious jewels that I love. The mood was just right for a lullaby and its legendary artist Carly Simon’s 2007 album “Into White” that I begged an encore visit of today.
Just like Ms. Simon’s sentiments, wishing she had written all those beautiful songs, I too admire all that genius.
Apparently, anyone can develop traits characteristic of genius, but I will not hold my breath as I am still looking for my other developments since puberty.
Everyone is potentially genius, let’s see what I’ve got.
#1 Concentration, check… hmm, 2+2 I wonder what’s for dinner.
#2 Problem solve, check…, hmm, though I still can’t figure out my websites.
#3 Honesty, check…, hmm, how old did I tell you I was?
#4 Don’t care so much about fame or money, check…hmm, I mean what does it matter that I received royalty checks for less than $2 each year for the last two years and 1 person visits my blog each day.
#5 Sudden burst of inspirations, check…hmm, I think I’ll write a beautiful lullaby.
Are all these traits emptying into white? Is white where genius is?
“LOVE DREAMIN’ IN LOVE da, da, da, SWEET DREAMS MY LOVE da, da, da”
Curiously the chorus words are pouring from me, the words are just emptying into white…paper.
OK, maybe it will help if I get the dust off my guitar and find the tune the words are dreaming of. Now that would-be genius. I’m dreamin’!
This has been a deb’s witty ditty on deb’s ditty blog.
