"Autumn Leaves" by Millais

 Okay, I like too many songs for one playlist.

So I've divided the songs into separate lists for separate moods

(which is how I listen to my music).

Click on the link and a separate page

will come up with the player

(this will not interfere with allpoetry as it brings up

an entire new browser page).

 

Songs that wallow in self pity...

 

 

Songs to make you smile...

 

 

Songs for a rage blackout...


   

Songs that make me hot...

(yes, I know - I have very odd taste)

 

 

 

Panoramic View From Blue Ridge Parkway in Autumn, by me

 

I love blueberries and fresh, crisp apples;

Autumn and fiery sunsets,

thunderstorms,

mountains and big old trees,

rock/alternative music,

painting, reading, writing,

photography,

UFC and MMA,

my wonderful family,

my friends who make me laugh

even when I feel like dying,

getting all dressed up,

dancing in the rain,

getting lost and sightseeing,

target practicing (I'm a perfect shot!)

and fishing with my grandfather!

I am simultaneously complicated and simple.
