27 Dec 2025 ~ SONG SUNG BLUE

I was listening to music while I was painting. I wasn’t thinking about Stonehaven, or Sarah, or roses, or ribbons. I was just listening to Neil Diamond’s old songs while focusing on my art. And then came this song:

Song sung blue

Everybody knows one

Song sung blue

Every garden grows one

Me and you are subject to the blues now and then

But when you take the blues and make a song

You sing them out again

Sing them out again

Song sung blue

Weeping like a willow

Song sung blue

Sleeping on my pillow

Funny thing, but you can sing it with a cry in your voice

And before you know, it get to feeling good 

You simply got no choice

I had to include it in this part of my journal. In fact, I think this is my new adversity anthem… how fitting…
