@davisjames Thank you for the sweet comment!  It is a tune which can be very calming, relaxing to play.  We have lots of various brown little birds around and love them.

You're right, @strumelia.  

My heart is in making music and it feels healing to make music.  I think I'm not alone in feeling this way about music.

Sometimes you don't have to 'know something' to do it beautifully.

We're happy you enjoyed the tune, @dusty-turtle!  Thank you for the kind comment!  

If I knew half the notes I play, @strumelia, I'd feel like I knew something.

Robin, I don't know what half the notes I play are either. shrugger

Exquisite! I'm sure I've complimented you, Robin, on your precise and sensitive playing, but I have to do so again.  And Mark's rolling arpeggios on the lower strings of the guitar gives the tune a gentle momentum.  I'll have to give this another listen when I'm not limited to my laptop speakers.

Thanks a bunch, @strumelia!  Sometimes, the birds like to join us. sun

I know your comment about the "somewhat unconventional counter-harmony notes" I added is a compliment yet I don't know enough to know what notes those are.  haha All I know is I've got a mountain dulcimer and a noter and I make noise. dulcimer

Doesn't really get any more perfect and lovely than this. Even the little bird contributing at the end!  love

I love the somewhat unconventional counter-harmony notes you have added, Robin. I enjoy doing that myself.

Many thanks, @dulcinina and @ethan-chastain!  Making homemade music is one of our favorite things to do-- it keeps us out of trouble.  :) 

Wishing you lots of happy strumming!
