Here Be Monsters
Introduction My friend the artist Mick Smith has started a series of nautical art pieces and this one took my fancy. The music is "Water Beastie" by The Sensational Alex Harvey Band from the album "Rockdrill". I love that this combines many styles from traditional to comic, to monstrous. I know it's about Nessie but I think it suits.

Broken Melodies
Echoes of Longing In the quiet of the night, I hear, The echoes of your voice so near, A whisper on the wind’s soft breath, A haunting song of love’s regret.

Wounded Hearts
Silent Yearnings In shadows where my heart does dwell, A love unspoken, none can tell, Your gaze, a light I cannot claim, A silent yearning, endless flame.
