A Morning Brings Mourning

I woke this morning from a dream, singing a song that I managed to remember most of on waking! I got up and recorded as much of it as I could get out of my head into the laptop and spent the next 10 hours working consistently on the piece until I had completed it!

In the dream I met the father of my lover. He sadly passed away nearly 3 years ago before I had the chance to meet him, but in the dream I got that chance (even though he had just passed in the dream too....) funny how dreams do that - and are completely made in your own mind! Extraordinary the emotional impact a single dream can have on the body and mind. I fully felt when I woke that was carrying the grief of the whole family on my shoulders.

One thing was certain anyhow, nothing else on my agenda for the day was going to go ahead until this thing had gotten out of me..

At about 11pm I rose from seat realising I had almost crippled myself with hunger - I threw the ingredients of a chilli con carne in a pot and awaited my knight in shinning armor to arrive home with big fat chipper chips... taco fries, chedder cheese and burger sauce - best medicine!

This is the photo I have decided to use as the image for the song ("Mourning Song") Which I have now put up as a free download on my Pledge Campaign Page
