Written for RDP, where Martha asks us
to get creative with the word “random”.
Thanks, Martha! Here’s where the prompt took me.
A random spark ignited the dry brush.
Soon, the entire hillside glowed,
a chaotic masterpiece of red
dancing against the silent midnight sky.

I love the way you’ve descibbed the fiore.
As for David Gilmour,. I wish I could play my saxophone as solefully as he does in this mesmerising track.

Ok … I’m awake now … but wait, everything around me seems so surreal … this music is from another time zone … maybe it’s time to go back to sleep …

beautiful, I adore this version. So Gilmour in Pink Floyd, would love to see him solo.

He’s brilliant, isn’t he? If you haven’t already checked out Floyd’s PULSE videos on YouTube, you really must. They are amazing!
Thanks, Gary.
