I’ve had an idea…

#Loveuary has ended, February is drawing to a close…

What could I do in March?

And so for me, #musicalmarch🎵 was born!

musicalmarch

Nothing too serious or tedious.

Just a chance to share some songs!

Every day, I am going to post a couple of songs. Some are favourites of mine, some hold a meaning, some are just memorable for various reasons!

One will be a Western song, one will be Eastern, to encapsulate what I am!

If you fancy posting a song for any reason this March, tag it #musicalmarch🎵 and link back to one of my posts so I can listen to your special songs too!

It’s finished!

I can’t believe February has come to an end, meaning my month of #Loveuary has also come to a close.

I have had an awesome month, and have enjoyed trying to spread a little more love out there into the world!

I’d like to thank my lovely blogging family for taking part in this with me!

Judy, Erika, Willow, Rich, Syl, Ladylee, ShanJeniah, Tim, Shiva, Robbie, Sangbad, Anisha, Lisa…

…to name a few! I apologise if I missed anyone, but rest assured I have appreciated the support from you all!

Some of you posted daily with me, some dipped in and out. Some were in it for a single post.

Hey, that’s all good!

I think the most important thing is to continue the love in our day to day lives.

Now… What to do in March…?

The lovely and talented Ritu of butIsmileanyway .com set us all off on Loveuary. We had to write about all aspects of love everyday. When we set off I did wander if I or any of us would make it. Yet here we are on the last day. Standing on the presipice of March!

Loveuary an Acrostic Poem.

Lovely Ritu had a great plan

Of love we must write each day if we can

Valentine’s day fell within this month

Every day we all worked to strive

Undying love & devotion to keep alive

Amourous words vied with lust

Reveries of fist kisses…

I’ll hold your hand
For a lifetime, I promise you
I’ll share your ebbs and flows
You’re my lifeline, I cherish you
I’ll love you no matter what
You’re my heartbeat, I need you
I’ll be there for eternity
You are me, I am you
