Another example

of the hilarious brilliance in Lily's songwriting.

So far this song is untitled.

She was born like an artist. Raised like a hound.
She always shines bright. Never hides her colors.
Glides like the wind. Floats like a feather.
And always shows her colors of her Land.
She jingles with the bells. Makes the rainbows shine.
And has the colors of the wind.
She can be an artist, she can be a hound.
But she keeps her colors bright.


What I want to know is who is this song based on? Some figment of Lily's imagination? Or is she writing about herself (she does fancy herself an artist after all)? In which case I'd really like an explanation for the raised like a hound part. Not to mention what zoomorphic trait does she imagine a hound gives to this artistic girl who jingles with the bells and makes rainbows shine?

At first, I thought you were giving us another example of your rude neighbors. Glad to see it was an original song instead. =) Very cute, by the way. Let us know if you find out more about those hidden meanings. =)

Interesting. It makes me wonder if she knows something deeper and more profound than the rest of us. I love all of the different topics put together into one poem. Very cute and creative. I give her two thumbs up!

You and Grant, plus the rest of the family must have patted and petted Lily on the head a lot, or maybe her food bowl on the floor, might explain the raised like a hound part.
