Easybeat sent me a song he wrote the other day about this summer here in NZ which hasn't been that good this year. Storms and heavy rain and cold weather not a normal summer.
It inspired me to write a song about summer also. His song is better than my one but I thought I would put my song up anyway.

hey Peatle, just listened to this and really enjoyed it. love the laid back feel of it, fits the whole summer vibe perfectly even if the actual weather wasn't cooperating haha. the strumming pattern keeps it moving along nicely too.
funny how weather can inspire songs right? i wrote something similar last year when we had a weird cold snap in june, ended up being one of my favorite things ive written. sometimes the contrast between what summer should be and what you actually get makes for better material than a perfect sunny day would.
cool that Easybeat inspired you to have a go at it too, that's what its all about. would be interested to hear his version as well if he ever posts it up.

Hi Mike, Thank you for your feedback. Easybeat does a better version than mine though so far he has only shared it with me. Ever since I was a kid I have written poems or my thoughts down most days. When it comes to songwriting, I do that less often as I struggle with doing that. It’s amazing how writing has helped me to navigate through life’s ups and downs, especially with everything changing around us all in the world. Mostly I do it as a way of sorting my head out basically it is my way of ranting to myself. Most of my writing is either questioning or celebrating what is happening around me or the impact of things in the bigger picture that come my way, I’d love to read some of your songs or poems or hear your music when you feel ready to share them on here. At times, Chordie has a fantastic vibe when the many people come out of the woodwork and get around to putting their posts on here. Hope we see more of your thoughts and music soon!

Sorry Pedr I missed this somehow. A nice little, almost lullaby. I get that sad feeling that comes when you know summer is over and all you have to look forward to is winters bleakness, here in UK anyway.
It's nice to see "new blood" Mike taking part, welcome Mike, I'd also like to see or hear your songs, join the gang.
