Shiny Things Accumulated

Like a little magpie, I love to gather shiny things.

Guess you could say this is my theme song. 

Here are a few of my favorite renditions:

Bruce Springsteen With The Sessions Band Live

Odetta - with spoken introduction 

Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir

Lower the Lights

Mike Farris & The Roseland Rhythm Revue

Shine by Collective Soul

One of my favs from the 90's

Shine

Do not try to colour me in

I live outside the lines

Smudged edges outline me

I cannot be confined

My life is a work in progress

And cannot be defined

By rules of art or rules of law

I cannot be refined

The shades you see are not from me

But reflections of your mind

The hues you use are what you choose

I cannot be assigned

A sketch an oil a watercolour

I am not organised

The form I take is what I make

I cannot be designed

A line an arc a watermark

Or something more sublime

Create my form from imagery

I will not be aligned

Shine by David Gray

Love his voice, even though he looks to be in pain!
