Lyric Inspired



I love listening to music while I create. My lyrical inspiration for the journal pages above ranges from New Order through Pink Floyd to Van Morrison. A song almost always evokes an emotion within. It can summon to mind a particular person or place we have only imagined. I am often inspired by a word or a phrase I hear   The power of music is emotional yet short lived. Journal pages capture in images the feelings music is able to inspire.
Here are a few Musical prompts for you to try.
  • Journal A memory evoked by a song.
  • Journal the first song you hear in a day.
  • Put the music on your I Pod or Phone on shuffle journal a  word or phrase from the first song that plays.
  • Use the story in a song to create an image.
I hope you have been inspired to bring your pages to life with a song!
