I wrote this song originally in 2017 and recently improved the vocal track but also redid a slideshow video that I made for it.  This has all of the improvements.  Some of the pics are from Pixaway stock but quite a few are from my own garden which my wife breaks her back every summer to make beautiful.  The song was produced in Cakewalk Sonar and uses Toontrack's EZ Keys and Native Instruments Session Strings Pro.
Hope you enjoy.

1.  I thoroughly enjoyed that! 
2.  Your voice is unique!  I have heard thousands of songs... none sing quite like you.
3.  I like the video.  Interesting how you tied the music to photos of your life.
4.  I will show this to my wife, after which she will ask me why I don't write songs like this!  ha!

A beautiful song John B. The video gives us snap shots of your life. You have a good voice and your music is always full of creativity. I specifically like the melody you've put to this music.

A beautiful, emotive and reflective song. Vocals are first class, melodically weaving through those lovely chord progressions. Nicely arranged and lovely images too.

I really like your melodic line. Lots of movement.

Real nice arrangement that does great service to the song.
