In Search of Peace

Morning Prayer


Inspiration comes from many different sources.

Today I was experimenting using an autotune program to arrange some backing vocals which I had put together.

After a few adjustments I quite liked the outcome and thought about writing a short poem to go with the voices. Since they sounded very hymn-like it was inevitable that I would end up writing a prayer.

I tried to avoid references to any particular religion, hoping that as many people as possible would identify with the emotion of appreciating a new day.

Unfortunately war, poverty and sickness take away from the peace that everyone deserves to enjoy. I hope that future generations find a way to move to making life better for all. I suppose I am a dreamer after all. What do you think?

The images in the video were taken in the quaint town of Estaimpuis in Belgium near the ruins of an old fort.

Why not try writing a poem to some music and tagging me with the result?
