Writing a Song

Writing a song is something I shall think about for a while. I know they can make people happy, give them a bit of a smile. They can also make people sad, crying on and off for days. Before I try one of them, I should consider which of the ways… I should go…to uplift and delight, or to depress and burn. I think upbeat is the best for me, although a song might take a turn. She might change completely, and surprise even me. For now, I think I will let song-writing exist without me

I don't know, Caren. You've written some fine lyrics if they were set to music...maybe a tweak or two here and there. But, people make millions writing songs. We poets make absolutely nothing and we are the stuff songs are made of.

My husband is begging me to write songs. I keep rolling my eyes. I am totally non-musical.
