there fell a hiatus...
Embers and Echoes
There fell a hiatus, a #moment, a breath with little more to say; little more that had some kind of meaning... And then he reached for an old wooden guitar... strummed a few strings and gently launched into the Beatles' 'Blackbird' song... But it wasn't the Beatles I heard at all... #vss365

I created this song on Songer. It is a mix of my tanka and haiku I posted on Blue Sky. They have then been converted to lyrics. I selected a mix of music styles and struggled to ask Songer to create male and female voices alternating. Finally did it. This is the result.
