PAWPAW'S MESSAGES TO MY GRANDSONS 106 - Every Time I See Something Beautiful I Think Of You

PAWPAW'S MESSAGES TO MY GRANDSONS 106 - Every Time I See Something Beautiful I Think Of You





Every Time I See Something Beautiful I Think Of You By Steven Skelley There’s a red bird Sitting outside my window today And as it flutters, the colors Catch my eye and take my breath away It’s not that I’ve nothing better to do But I sit here it seems unable to move And my mind once again turns to thoughts of you Because every time I see something beautiful I think of you I think of you I watch the water Catching, reflecting the light The waves are rolling, moving Like they’re playing as a child might It’s not that I’ve nothing better to do But I sit here it seems unable to move And my mind once again turns to thoughts of you Because every time I see something beautiful I think of you I think of you Copyright 2025 Steven Skelley I hope that there has been someone, or maybe several someones, in your life that has made living here on planet earth better for you. I have. It is often in the quiet moments that I see a beautiful thing and the beauty reminds me of those beautiful souls that loved me along my path. Because every time I see something beautiful, I think of you. Hugs, Steven (I have come to the point at the age of 62 that the toxic mold exposure earlier twenty years ago and the resulting breathing disability won't allow me to sing my own songs. I hope that my songs continue to touch your heart regardless of who sings them. Hugs, Steven)

PAWPAW'S MESSAGES TO MY GRANDSONS 104 - SHERRY'S SMILE

 Sherry’s Smile


The Sherry in my song is my big sister Sherry. She passed away too young at the age of 45. Cancer is evil. As I considered her role in my life, I wrote this song. Every word is true. Hugs, Steven (I have come to the point at the age of 62 that the toxic mold exposure twenty years ago and the resulting breathing disability won't allow me to sing my own songs. I hope that my songs continue to touch your heart regardless of who sings them. Hugs, Steven)
