New Song in the Genre of "Artistic Poetry"
Hey friends, I posted a new song on my page "A future (stolen by a Lie)" Its a little ditty I wrote to a Poem by a lyricist I sometimes work with. Its a simple arrangement, but I think the melody flows well with her poetry. I sat down with the guitar, and this is what came about.

Very nice Jeff....that was great!!! I know how difficult it can be to write music and develop a melody to words that have already been written (back in the days when I used to write songs with lyrics). At least for me I always worked from the other direction.....I would come up with the music, and then improvise the words to come up with the meter, melody, and rhyming pattern that fit within the structure of the music. From there I would work on the words to fit that convention (sort of like Paul McCartney and how Yesterday was originally scrambled eggs). Anyways, I thought it was fantastic!
