The delicate ghost
Of a smile waivers through pain
Mesmerizing sight
Fragile 3TC #Tanka #Poem
A butterfly soars
Flying freely with the breeze
Fragile but not weak
We, too, can flow with heartache
Not as fragile as we feel

I wrote this song in 2015. You can listen to the ukulele version with lyrics
here.
Today’s lovely instrumental is played on Ocean Drum, double strung harp, cowrie shell shaker, and Oriole (soprano) recorder. These instruments work especially well in this piece. I hope you enjoy it!

Refrain:
Happy birthday
To the Truth in you!
1. Your birthday is your earth day this run through,
A good time to remind yourself
What really makes you you,
A perfect day to celebrate
The Infinite in you.
Your birthday is your earth day this run through.
Refrain:
2. Your birthday is a way to mark your life,
And move you on the path that’s drawn
By God who knows the rhyme
And reason for the season
You are living in this time.
Your birthday is a way to mark your life.
Refrain:
3. Your birthday is a mirth day for your soul
That knows your place in time and space
And what you’re here to show.
The Infinite is still in it,
O you are not alone.
Your birthday is a mirth day for your soul.
Refrain: (Twice)

You probably know this tune, but did you know it’s an English sea shanty from the 1800s and possibly earlier? I heard it as a child and wanted to include it in my sea-themed pieces.
Here, the Ocean Drum plays its wave sound, as well as rhythm beats. Melody and harmony are both played on alto recorder, with ukulele accompaniment.
I hope this brings a smile to your face! ☺️
