I am influenced by many writers. Some that I rea their books or poems. Some that I read on the blogging sites I post to and interact with.
Today I am sharing a song I used to sing to my kids many years ago.
The moon song!

I was inspired by Dawn’s post of yesterday talking about the moon. I remember watching the moon as a child, In the summer of 1969 i stared at the moon every day of the summer. I watched the moon. I watched the steps. The moon became my friend that summer.
Now I check the sky. Is the moon rising during the day? Is the moon full or is the moon waning?
When my daughter was little i sang this song to her. I actually wrote the song, created the words and it was my daughter’s favorite part of bedtime.
I sang the Moon Song at my daughter’s wedding. The moon song, words and music by DocAndersen!

I used to sing to my boys whatever i thought they needed it, mostly made up on the spur of the moment. My older son and I have some special songs we sing if either of us are sick. He was sick so often when he was little and I always made up songs to cheer him up.
that is so cool – i am even more inspired now!
thank you again for the inspiration for this.
We used to vary this song for the twins, for my daughter. We would sing what was going to happen the next day.
Time and again, show us what your new talent.
aw
thank you so much. you made me feel very special with your words!
Amazing song and voice. What great photo and recorded musical memories you and your family have forever.
the kids won’t let me sing it now. “it makes us tired!” little do they know…
They will enjoy it one day in their future.
my daughter cried at her wedding when I sang it.
Wow! Now I have heard your voice; heavy and deep with subtle Vibra!
aw thank you!
i am not allowed to sing that song anymore, it makes the kids tired!
That prohibition is surprising for the fact that my computer isn’t experiencing any interference because of your voice.
The kids all say “it makes us sleepy”
Isn’t that the purpose of singing Lullaby?
in fact it is, which is why they hate the song now!
There will definitely be a turn to sing the song for your grandchildren later.
fingers crossed on that one!
We discover you day by day…. You have a good voice!🙂
Thank you – i was in a band early in my college career! But i was also a Dj. I had the right voice for overnight radio!
