Nice entry and I hope you are dancing now, too.
I agree in that, at times, it is difficult to hear the words through the music. Still, worse yet, sometimes the noisy messy music brings down the perfectly good lyrics.
I've thought I could walk to people's houses in Maine too. Yeah, then realizing that the lack of street lights should have been obvious so I can relate to how dark, dark can be.
Hi, Lyn, Ms. Lucifer Morningstar thanks for your comment on my blog. Halloween doesn’t really bother me . The young ones in my family get a kick out of it. I was just using the words in the prompt and wasn’t complaining about it. I appreciate all the commitment you and others have in coming up with contests and prompts each day on WdC.
Cheers Sue. I’m not really a grinch.

Joy-the Harpy Witch Thanks for you comments. I looked at your bio and was surprised to see you’re even older than I am.😳
It’s not easy to know the ages of people who you’re in contact with on WdC. I sometimes guess when a writer is very young, but I’m often surprised to find out I’ve thought of them as the wrong gender even! It’s these user names which confuse me😂 Well, age is no barrier to being able to write a story or a poem, is it? Just as long as we keep those brain cells in good order. Keep smiling, Joy, and spread the happiness.
Sue
That bright side of life is what makes us going in this mixed-up world. I had thought earlier that you were much younger. It seems you're my peer. Maybe it is the age group because I, too, appreciate many things, some of them the same as you have stated for yourself.
Hi, Carolyn, you would have felt the loss of those children more keenly with them being local. I would never be able to empathise with or forgive that driver. Yet I can imagine how that hatred could be destructive to one’s self and ability to carry on living. I believe the parents went on to have more children. That alone is so brave as some people in those circumstances would be too fearful knowing how quickly life can be extinguished.
Prompt: Songs
What do you think of song lyrics in general and
which songs have vivid memories for you? Also, do you remember if any song taught you anything about life?
I love song lyrics. I think the reason I’m not keen on many modern songs is because I can’t tell what they’re singing. The music may sound great and make you want to hum along but I need the words. I like songs with a meaning, songs that mean something to me. Songs that make me want to smile, dance, be sad or make me emotional. Even the song ‘I still call Australia Home,’ makes me cry, even when they are playing it on the Qantas ad! There are so many songs I can’t really choose. Anything off Norah Jones first couple of albums would be ok. The song lyrics I’ve chosen are from I hope you dance.’ There are many singers who have sung this, but it’s the words which I like and the sentiment. “If you have the chance to sit it out or dance, I hope you dance.’
