Butterflies And Other Things

Good piece! It not only sounds happy, it sounds salable--I can easily imagine this as the theme for a PBS television program. It would work just as you did it, or with another arrangement. Register the copyright and try selling it--I'm serious.

I'm sure you're aware that part starts to sound like the intro to the "Do Re Mi" song from "Sound of Music," but you end the phrase differently than Richard Rodgers did, so you're in the clear.

It has a Celtic/Irish folk sound, I think. Don't you?

As for the question, "Am I happy," no, today I'm not. Neither my wife nor my sister has any appreciation of instrumental music, so until I start finishing my pop songs (in progress), I'll continue to get blank stares.
