Steemit Open Mic Week 77 - Original Song 'Last Robin of the Winter'
Hell Everyone! This is my first entry to the Steemit open mic contest and I'm very happy to be here. This is an original song I wrote in St. Ives, Cornwall with a dear friend of mine, Raven Beale. I havent seen raven in a very long time and this song popped into my head as I was about to record something else! Crazy how the mind and memory work. like magic! Im glad to have entered this contest just to have remembered this song again! So thank you!
As it's my first entry I am a little wary about whether or not I am doing it right. If anyone notices anything wrong or incorrect with the post please let me know! or if anyone has some tips for me they would be very well received. I am so glad to be a part of this and am excited to keep entering every week too! already i have seen some really great entries! keep up the good work and thanks to everyone that puts this together and keeps it going you guys are super rock stars!
thanks for listening and i hope you enjoy it.
LYRICS -
With Six of One and half a dozen of another
She was off to meet her end
surrounded by her brothers
so she leaves for the city
and her heart was broken in one
the streets are paved with sadness
and all the gold is gone
she was the first breath of the summer
she was the last woman of the winter
she was the first breath of the summer
we saw the last robin of the winter
how couldnt you see
that her heart was in her sleeves
and her stomach was in her throat
but the angels are at her feet
oh please
her dreams they last until the morning light
running through the darkness to stay in the night
but ive seen her fall.
great song & welcome 2 openmic ;9)
