From the recording A New Day
This song and was inspired by a note my son wrote when he was four years old. I thought it was so beautiful and I called it his first poem, even though it was only four words long! This song centres around nature and the environment, and how humankind must be proactive in protecting this beautiful planet for many generations to come. I saved the note and used it in my photo shoot for this album, which you will be able to see inside my CD cover.

Flowers On The Sun – Katie Miller © 2016
Flowers on the sun
A new day has begun
What are you looking for
Beyond that golden door
It’s not hard to remember
The way things used to be
When we ran with the wolves at night
We were so young then
Flowers on the sun
A new day has begun
What are you looking for
Beyond that golden door
We build it up then tear it down
It’s the only way we know
The ravens cast their shadows on the ground
Watching silently
Flowers on the sun
A new day has begun
What are you looking for
Beyond that golden door
Take my hand & listen to the rain
Feel it on your skin
Can you hear the drummer beating in time
Flowers on the sun
A new day has begun
What are you looking for
Beyond that golden door
Come with me down the river tonight
Let it carry us away
Let it carry us along thru the morning
So we can see the sun rise
Flowers on the sun
A new day has begun
What are you looking for
Beyond that golden door
