Dr Mary’s Thoughts about Her Songs

Thank God for Small Things

Thank God for Small Things

We sit on the back porch, my mother and I Rustling grass on the hills reaching far Storms rolling crossed colored Kansas skies……… I’m still working on my little rambles about my songs…………. Thank God for Small Things was written especially for a Sunday service at the Presbyterian Church in Eckert, Colorado. I had committed […]

Could You Explain

Could you explain to me the things you do all I want to do is understand Is this something I bring out in you or are you just a thoughtless man……………. The 7th cut on the Sometime’s It’s a Matter of Time CD………….This one is hard to really talk about, I guess……..I remember the night […]

Please Know

A love song………..for……………..him…………. Please know you are the only one that I want lying by my side. Let me be your home your shelter, A place to be safe and warm inside………… There are so many love songs from a man to a woman……….so many tunes about special women.  This one is for the special […]

Do What You Want

This song was a fun one to write and liberating, as well!   I have had to personally revisit it every now and then when I find myself forgetting the lesson learned and told…………  I tell my daughters that if being around someone doesn’t encourage them to be the best person they can be……..they need […]

I Have No Picture of You

This is another of my ramblings about my songs from the title CD, Sometime’s It’s a Matter of Time………. You know that sometimes it’s better if the picture that you hold for a touching memory is the picture inside your head or your heart.  I think for everyone, there are those who have come and […]

Antiguan Waves

On the shore line of Antigua, I sat, listening to the waves…….ebbing and flowing……..pounding and then sitting back……….Antigua was one of the first flirtations that I had with my love for the water.  Growing up in Kansas, I fell in love with the sounds from the grasses, as heard from the top of the hill.  […]

Can We Build a Bridge

In this busy life, with so little time, how do we ever manage to have meaningful friendships, or loves.  So many people pass………………… and possibly they are someone special that was MEANT to cross our paths……..But, how many times might a special someone pass by, only NOT to be noticed because we were caught up […]

Right Now

Another song about time…..and the time IS……Right Now………I know this can’t be right,…… right now……..But, I’ll be your friend anyhow……….and I won’t even try and tell you…that I know what you’re going through…………but, if you ever need a friend………here I am to lend a hand and smile……..I’ll even hold you when you cry………..and not ask […]

Oh Fernando

Oh Fernando

I’ve been working on a new song.  It’s a love song to my first true love.  And as you listen, you’ll learn that there is something I sing about the time we lived in and that our love could never be.  Well, it’s a love song to Fernando Sor, who was a classical composer of […]

Sometime's It's a Matter of Time

Sometime’s It’s a Matter of Time

I decided a while back, that if I got the chance to BLOG and share myself in this personal way with you, that I would tell you about the heart of my original songs…….just give you a little background to listen with.  So, I’ll start with “Sometime’s It’s a Matter of Time”.  I guess that […]
