Poetry

Reached out to my lovely mother to record her talking about my poetry as a kid, with no other prompting and used it in a song!
Really long intro on this one, but I like it! ha ha
As always, constructive criticism appreciated!
Fun fact - I hit my highest chest-voice note ever here! (A3, technically A#3 with the vibrato), I can;t go higher without switching to head voice... yet

(When you were young
You used to write poetry
and I remember how amazed I was with the words you used
and the way you put your thoughts and ideas together
it was such a big discovery for me
to realize that you enjoyed it
and you had that ability
and that talent
to do that
and I still
really enjoy your creative ideas)
You nurtured the spark
that kept me
alive
you made sure I
was able
to thrive
(When you were young
you used to write poetry
I still really enjoy
your creative ideas)
You saw everything in me
early
nurtured the artistic side
helped me navigate my life
my life
My artistic path
ensured
I'd last
that freedom to create
helped me avoid
his fate (fate)
(When you were young
you used to write poetry
I still really enjoy
your creative ideas)
You saw everything in me
early
nurtured the artistic side
helped me navigate my life
my life
Opportunities were light
in my small
town
Technology and art
soon calmed
my heart
You saw everything in me
early
nurtured the artistic side
helped me navigate my life
my life
