Meaning no disrespect to Dolly Parton - I love this song!

Soap of Many Colours



Now I have a lot of soaps
they surround my sink
and there is no better fragrance
than soap bubbles, I think.

They're pink and blue and yellow
and they shine against the light
and when I wallow in my bathtub
My imagination takes flight.

I dream I am a princess
Bathed in rich perfume
And when I'm done bathing
I'll don a gold costume

I dream I'm in a garden
With flowers all around
And butterflies a flitting
Their wings make not a sound

So there's no end to dreaming
When there are bubbles in the air
and my soap of many colours
Leave me without a care!

"Note: 48-HOUR CHALLENGE : Media Prompt Deadl..."

The beginning of the song reminded me of the Beatles - Woke up got out of bed, dragged a comb across my head ...

The pictures were innovative, a song set to a series of caricatures.

The story was the age old girl-boy in love, parental veto, they want to go ahead anyway.

Sorry but nothing much to say here. I guess I'm too old for today's music! *Smile*

Long Phone Calls

Ever since I can remember, I've made long phone calls. The record was once in my school days (only land lines then) when I phoned my classmate. Her Mom answered and I asked for my friend and her Mom handed over the phone.

Thereafter, while we were speaking, her parents went for a movie to the theatre. They watched the movie and returned — my friend and I were still on the same conversation.

I just got done with an hour long conversation with my cousin who lives in California.

So what do long phone conversations give me?

A sense of companionship, a space to really explore what I feel about certain people and situations, a safe space to bounce creative ideas and a safe space to vent when I need to. I know that, before the days of mobiles, 'she hogs up the phone' used to be the standard comic line about any teenage girl int he family. But I think one need not be flippant about long phone conversations. I'm fifty-seven years old and I still have them and value them.
