Dean Martin has the tone I was working for.
Blue Moon: Singing is good for you
There are reasons singing is good for you.
I sing because it makes me feel good.
This is a strange story. I was in hospital.
An ultra-sound had been ordered.
(That’s all you need to know about that.)
I went into the ultra-sound singing Blue Moon.
Don’t ask me why.
Halfway thru the ultra-sound
I thought why am I doing this
so I ceased singing at such
a strange time.
And then a voice; from where
I couldn’t say; not above, so
it wasn’t God. (And I wasn’t
that far gone though I sure
could have been – long story.)
The voice said “Don’t stop;
we were enjoying that.” (Truth
being; so was I, both the effort and sound.)
So I went back to the hospital ward singing.
Now I read that singing
is good for the heart.
I’ll keep singing,
not the cure but a tool.

Great! For the last two days I’ve been singing too after finding a post on Facebook that singing is good for our overall health. Good to hear that you are better, Benita. And keep singing!

Thank you Irina. Not quite better, the wound keeps seeping. I have to phone the doctor about the result of the last swab. I had so hoped to go to choir today but at the moment it is looking unlikely. But if I sing my spirits may lift.

Yes, I have improved a great deal. It will be very slow and heartbreaking for Sandy in her healing.
