I think dogs are super cool and have depth beyond our assumptions. Which, I guess, explains why this is not the first song I have written with a canine muse. Is that weird? Maaaybe.

Last November, a lovely friend of mine gave me the fantastic present of peaceful escapism. As a thank you for her kindness, I wrote her a song inspired by her doggie and sent her this little recording with the ukulele chords so she could play along at home (uke people attract uke people I think) for the pup.

This recording has a whistle solo that really shows off my total lack of talent in that particular area, so I’m really excited to share.

 

 

Bully of the Open Sea

 

Daringly she tests the water

Wondering if she outta seize the day

And sail free

 

Adventure’s name starts calling softly

And slowly swells to a cacophony

“Come to me”

 

Her paws lift slowly from the sand

She flies through dreams of other lands

 

Harriet

She tends the winds and waves ferociously

The wisened bully of the open sea

Conscript to none, captain of all

 

Harriet

Do not be caught fool by her peaceful pace

Her stocky stance belies a leopard’s grace

Of heart and soul, if not of paw
