Inspired by <a href="http://www.haikupoet.com/">Paul & Mary Mena's collaborations</a>, I purchased a camera and started tinkering with my own haiku and photos. <br /> <br />The photograph is of poet/author <a href="http://enloehs.wcpss.net/projects/afam/moore/moore.html">Lenard D. Moore</a> from Raleigh, NC. This picture was taken during a <a href="http://www.nc-haiku.org/meetings.htm#ginko">ginko</a> (haiku walk) at <a href="http://www.ncbg.unc.edu/">The North Carolina Botanical Garden</a> in Chapel Hill, NC on September 19th, 2004. <br /> <br />I composed the poem about a month later. <div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9884267-110555230638176521?l=webwiseguy.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>curthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03031367639428252401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9884267.post-1104757522177266742005-01-03T07:32:00.000-05:002005-01-08T07:53:01.453-05:00<span style="font-style: italic;">If </span>I can get over this nagging cough, it looks like I may be singing solo and playing the guitar (along with some fine <a href="http://www.webwiseguy.com/images/mybrosphoto.jpg">musicians</a>) next Sunday night. The song I plan to do is by <a href="http://www.thirdday.com/">Third Day</a> entitled Your Love O'Lord (<a href="http://bible.gospelcom.net/passage/?book_id=23&chapter=36&version=31">Psalm 36</a>). <br /> <br />I figured this song out last November while sitting in a motel room in Wilmington, NC. It's easy to play and a very beautiful song. I've jotted down the chords here...the chords for each line are in brackets. Sooo...for the aspiring musician that's a Third Day fan, here ya go: <br /> <br />Your Love O'Lord (<a href="http://bible.gospelcom.net/passage/?book_id=23&chapter=36&version=31">Psalm 36</a>) <br /> <br />lyrics by: Marc Powell / music by: Third Day <br /> <br />[Intro Chords:] <br /> <br />G C G C <br /> <br />[Verse:] <br /> <br /> <br />[G C G D/F#] Your Love O'Lord reaches to the heavens <br /> <br />[Em C G D/F#] Your faithfulness stretches to the sky <br /> <br />[Em C G D/F#] Your righteousness is like a mighty mountain <br /> <br />[Em C G D/F#] Your justice flows like the ocean's tide <br /> <br /> <br />Chorus: <br /> <br />[D C G] I will lift my voice to worship You my King <br /> <br />[D C Am7 D] I will find my strength in the shadow of Your wings <br /> <br /> <br />[Repeat Verse &amp; Chorus:] <br /> <br />[Instrumental Break:] <br /> <br />G C G D/F# <br /> <br />Em C G D/F# <br /> <br /> <br />[Chorus 2 X:] <br /> <br />[Finish slowing down with:] <br /> <br />[G C G D/F#] Your Love O'Lord reaches to the heavens <br /> <br />[Em C G ] Your faithfulness stretches to the sky <br /> <br />For those new to playing guitar, a D/F# chord is just a D chord with your thumb added to the big E string at the F# (second fret) position. <br /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9884267-110475752217726674?l=webwiseguy.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>curthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03031367639428252401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9884267.post-1104585243199675912005-01-01T08:09:00.000-05:002005-01-01T08:14:03.200-05:00I'm not sure spilling my thoughts out on a page is for me...wait-a-minute! I already do that at http://webwiseguy.com <br /> <br />Will this be a waste of time?
