My new camera and tripod seem determined to make me believe that happiness comes from the outside! The 42x zoom makes it possible for me to stand in my front yard and take a picture that details the craters of the moon. I feel like shouting! What kind of crazy world is this, where I can take a picture like that? And if something like this can happen in my front yard, why haven't human beings figured out how to stop the wars, or how to feed everyone good food?
Well, that I will not be able to figure out in this blog entry. But the moon did remind me of another moon song of mine, one I wrote a long time ago.
Recording it tonight a change to the song came to my mind, so I've sung it the new way, which is simply the change of the word "on" to the word "in" in the last refrain. And it's funny how making a lyric more accurate seems to make me happy. But my guess is that making a lyric more accurate is actually an expression of happiness. Like the moon, always new again, the song is reborn, and I'm so happy to post it here for whoever might happen upon it. In Love, Kathleen

She Shines

Darlin', I'm alone, I'm alone tonight
The full moon is shinin' and I've finally seen her light
It shines on me alone, shines on you alone
She travels the whole world around
Shines on the lovers, shines on the lonely ones
Shines on the lost until we're found
Shines until we're found, shines until we're found
Darlin', can you feel it? That moon does not take sides
She'll light your way to laughter, and she holds me when I cry
She shines on me alone, shines on you alone
Travels the whole world around
Shines on lovers, shines on the lonely ones
Shines on the lost until we're found
Shines until we're found, shines until we're found
And oh I do get lost sometimes
I forget most everything I know
That's when I call on the moon for a favor
Please shine your light, show me where to go
And darlin' can you feel it? That moon does not take sides
She lights my way to laughter and she'll hold you when you cry
She shines in me alone, shines in you alone
She travels the whole world around
Shines in the lovers, shines in the lonely ones
She shines in the lost until we're found
Shines until we're found, shines until we're found
She shines until we're found, shines until we're found
