I am excited to share the video of the first public concert where my song Canada, Our Canada was performed on April 28, 2017. Elder College Singers of Delta, BC is the group I belong to and it was part of our Celebrating Canada’s 150th concert series.
Please leave a comment below, I would love some feedback on this new anthem.

Day 25 of NaPoWriMo – “Let’s try a musical form — the ballad. Traditionally, ballads were rhymed poems that told a story of some kind, and were often set to music. If you have any musical talent, it might be fun to try and actually make a tune for your ballad!” Here is what I sang on to my page this morning. I must now write down the tune before it leaves my head.
HEART SONG
What song do I hear my heart sing
as I greet this beautiful dawn?
A song of love or a song of joy,
like the birds sing every morn?
When our sun rises each morning
I will let my spirits rise too,
though I don’t know what the day may bring
or what I’ll be guided to do.
I can be happy regardless
of challenges coming my way.
I control my feelings and my thoughts,
I know I can have a good day.
Love is my constant companion
there is nothing I can’t achieve.
I need to apply my faith and trust
and be true to what I believe.
So what song is my heart singing
as I greet this beautiful dawn?
Its’ a song of love that’s filled with joy
I will sing like a bird each morn.
Repeat last verse.
