New Tune Has A First Line
Alright…it seems like everyone’s shy about getting started. But there was a bold writer who plunged in words first and submitted a couple of verses. We’ll be working on one line at a time, so I won’t use all the words he submitted. (You can read the rest of them here) Still; I am gonna take one of his lines to “prime the pump”. The first line of this new tune will be:
I cast my gaze to the bright sky
Now…we need the next line. Maybe you could make a comparison between the bright sky and the night sky. Or maybe you could talk about something in the sky. (moon, sun, stars, clouds, rainbow) Keep in mind it’s a lullabye, and try to make the words and ideas match. And remember we’re singing about the peppermint pony.
Don’t be shy. This isn’t English class. It’s songwritin’. Have fun. Dare to dive in. Bring it on.
Lyrically yours,
