Out of sheer respect and admiration for her, I wrote "Josie's Smile". I hope that she and everyone of her countless friends will enjoy it. I theorize that she has so many friends is due to her ability to express love toward others. One cannot give their love away without getting back tenfold.

Does anyone want to add lyrics and vox? Wow, would that make her smile for real, or what?

Thanks Don. LOVE IT! LOVE IT!!

I suppose it won’t be appropriate for me to put the lyrics to it?

JosieB ...should we just say "Josies' smile" and then it will be for both of us? (tip: note the placement of the apostrophe)

Hi Don
well worth giving you a nudge! lol!
A lovely piece and I can see Josie smiling. Some of the phrases in there have come out just right and would be worth looping to make a "hook" etc. However, it will be someone smarter than the average Bear (me!) to put words to it. Poet am I not.
Well done, Don
cheers

Hi Don,

this is a pretty tune and
good picking.
I was sure Josie would love it before she said so.

I have never had a true song (melody plus lyrics) before. I would love it!

Apparently, I have a gaggle of beautiful Josies to love.

Josie B, it will be a pleasure and honor to compose a wee ditty for you. I think that I've learned your genre preferences to be very similar to my own. So don't touch that dial!

Thanks, SD and Scott! All I did was to feed BB a chord progression then run alongside with cattle prod to keep it in the center of the road. It's one of those times when I would back up to the pay window knowing that I had not truly been responsible for much.

Thanks for squinting an ear at it and especially for your comments. They are especially encouraging.
