There’s nothing like a brownie mix,
Especially when you are sick!
It’s hard to taste… It’s hard to smell…
But brownies get you feeling well!
And if they’re chocolate, all the better!
Soon you won’t be under the weather.
They’re quick to make and quick to eat.
Admitted: You deserve a treat!
There’s nothing like a brownie mix,
And then you have the bowl to lick!
Forest Mystery is a piece I wrote last year to try out the G minor melodic scale. From C tuning, tune all B strings to Bb and all F strings to F#. Enjoy it played on 19-string acoustic lyre.

And my double strung arrangement played on 2 19-string acoustic lyres.
Blessed Mother Earth,
I hear you crying out in pain.
Blessed Mother Earth,
You are my home, and since my birth
Your steadfast love is not in vain.
You keep me; may I do the same,
Blessed Mother Earth!
This is another lovely piece by Catherine Guilbeau. I am playing a 19-string acoustic lyre, but this can be played on a 16-string as well. To learn this piece or purchase the sheet music, check out Catherine’s YouTube video below.

The Light inside
All Nature is alive in you.
The Light inside
May seem to dim, but never dies.
You are the image and the proof
That All is One in Love and Truth—
The Light inside.
Thank you, Idaho, for all you give:
Potatoes keeping tummies full.
So versatile and tasty,
And they last a long time.
Boiled, baked, fried or grilled…
Fruit of the Earth,
Potatoes,
I love
You!
This is a piece I wrote several years ago. It sounds especially beautiful played on Brandon John Luthiery lyres with steel strings.
19-string acoustic lyre, played as originally composed
16-string solid body lyre, slight modifications because you don’t have the F3. Also, I forgot the intro. Oops!
Double strung is my favorite way to play this piece! Here I play 2 19-string acoustic BJL lyres.
And because I wrote it on this instrument, here it is on Lynda Lyre
