I wrote this song using my trusty ukulele when I was visiting friends in Toronto. I later recorded it with Doug Hammer playing his magnificent Schimmel grand piano.

Another Good Morning
Copyright 2014 by Will McMillan
It's another good morning
SQUIRRELS are LEAPING through the trees, And a SILKY summer breeze
RUSTLES in the AIR…
Just a HINT of a warning
Time is FLOWING, flowing PAST
Time to WAKE and break your fast
Time to be AWARE that
Nothing LASTS forever
Grab a dream and pull the lever
LIFE just keeps on, keeps on FLOWING…
Are you down with HOW it's going?
FIND some meaning,
Find some FOCUS,
FIND a little hocus pocus
Do your WORK and ONE day you can SAY…
It's another good morning
Snails are climbing up the flox
An apparent paradox —
BROWN and GREEN and white.
And WITHOUT any warning,
Something MEETS your WAKING nose Coffee, EGGS and, yes, a ROSE
BLOOMING in the LIGHT…
Nothing LASTS forever
Grab a dream and pull the lever
LIFE just keeps on, keeps on FLOWING…
Are you DOWN with HOW it's going?
FIND some meaning,
Find some FOCUS,
FIND a little hocus pocus
UNPLUG the radio…
That FLAT screen may have to go
If you are gonna FIND your flow TODAY
On another good morning
BRUSH your teeth and TAKE a bath
YES, you're WALKING on your PATH
Now head out and play
Oh, you're on your way
And you CAN start today…
