Really enjoyed it!

Thanks Janice & Bud...
For the listen and kind words...
I like your train of thought...

Huh... That sounds like a nice song title!

Great song Jim! And I love the thought behind it! I promise you that when people hear this, they will be humming or singing that chorus for a while! Thanks, Torrey.

I enjoy watching and listening to my dog Lilly as she lays on the floor dreaming.

Thanks Herb...
I happy you & Lilly enjoyed listening & perhaps dreaming...
BTW...
I'm thankful the Lord heard our prayers...
And Lisa is recovering!

Hi Jim,

yes, very enjoyable and yes, a perfect song for kids. Writing a simple song that really works (like this one) is way more difficult than people might think-

Bur since I do not share your opinion that we don't know what to do the follow-up song might be: We can make a better world.

All the best to you, Jim,

Stefan

Jim,

You have grandchildren?
Must be! And probably you are their most favorite granddad.
Simple songs are often very charming, like this one from you. No complicated issues, just little kids, cats... everything.
I am a granddad for my kittens. They purr immediatly if I come around (I'm the only one feeding them and their mother, but that's hardly an explanation, I think). Now they purr on your song about dreams...

But seriously, it's a nice sweet song, Jim!
