Besides writing, translating and dreaming about haiku, song-writing has been my other lifelong obsession, begun around age ten with "Skippy My Love Dog."
As a performer of my own songs, I'm a happy, perhaps more than slightly off-key amateur. My hope is that talented singers and musicians will adopt my songs and give them good homes on their albums and in their live performances. All three volumes are available on Amazon.com. Two more are planned.
Volume 1: Songs of Innocence
Volume 2: Love Songs
Volume 3: Songs of my Life
Here's one sample song, "Slow Down/ Go Down":
