In Pursuit of Love

                         When the eagle soars wild and free
                                            Come…
                         When the seagull flies over the sea
                                        come to me.

                       Slowly you rise like a slow moving tide
                     you rise like a vision and come to my side.
                                        Speak softly
                              starlight and moon beams
                             your beauty surrounding me.

                        When the mist settles after the rain
                                            Stay…
                   When the gentle wind whispers your name
                                      stay with me.

                 Walking together through pine scented trees
                     the forest is calling, come closer to me.
                                     Our eyes meet
                                    passions ignited
                                 enraptured eternally…

John Watt Date: 8/5/2022 11:42:00 AM Laura, I have been admiring your lyric for over a week now, and because of this I was inspired to give this contest a try. The more I try to match both the mood and the irregular meter, the more I admire how well you put this together! The romantic vibe you paint is so lovely with the imagery of birds soaring, tide and forest, stars and moon, wind and rain. Your musicality shines through, my friend, and the way you match the mood of the music to your message is brilliant. Well done, thanks for the inspiration, and I hope to see this on the winner's list! Blessings ~ John Login to Reply Laura Leiser Date: 8/6/2022 4:40:00 PM Well, thank you, John! It was harder for me than it looks, as I kept changing certain phrases at first to go with the melody better. I’ll look forward to reading your interpretation of the song! Writing a lyric that works is harder than it appears, I think! :)
