The Carrier Pigeon

I just had to let you to know that I started (and almost finished) a song tonight that was inspired by Mark's idea of giving a song to a carrier pigeon who flies away with it.

Rob Still said, "Julie, you should write a song about a carrier pigeon," and I replied, "No, I can't do that." The song must have overheard me and laughed at me because that VERY second, it popped into my head almost entirely and I had to write it down.

I figured out the final melody when I got home to my piano (with a little inspiration from my own Rob) and now it is 95% done!

I can't believe it. That NEVER happens to me. It must have been all that creativity oozing about the room.

I think it will be a great song for The Lovespies, and it sounds like it will have an accordion solo in it.

We'll be sure to play it for you at the next meeting, although we don't have an accordion.....
